About this map

Saint Jerome Creek carves into the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, creating a complex network of inlets and peninsulas that define this section of the Saint Mary's County coastline. Small coastal developments such as Saint Jerome Shores, Saint Jerome Beach, and Saint Jerome Manor cluster near the water's edge, reflecting a landscape centered on tidal access and maritime orientation. Further inland, the map identifies the Dameron Post Office and the Wingfield Airport, serving as local hubs for the surrounding rural communities.

The topography is characterized by low-lying coastal features including Fishers Point and the curiously named Point No Point. Several isolated bodies of water, such as Peters Pond, Filbert Pond, and Biscoe Pond, sit just behind the shoreline, protected by narrow strips of land. These features, along with local landmarks like Howleys Manor and Blue Gull Hill, provide specific points of interest for those tracing family history or geographic changes in this tidewater region.
