About this map

Poolesville serves as the primary hub of this Maryland landscape, where the agricultural traditions of Montgomery County meet the protected corridor of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park. The map documents a cluster of established rural settlements including Beallsville, Dickerson, and Barnesville, alongside smaller localities like Jerusalem and Jonesville. The Potomac River forms the southwestern boundary, punctuated by significant landmarks such as Mason Island and Whites Ford.

Tracing the waterways reveals the Monocacy River and Little Monocacy River flowing through a landscape defined by the Culpeper Basin. Local history is anchored by several burial grounds, including the Monocacy Cem and Saint Marys Catholic Cem. The road network, featuring names like Whites Ferry Rd and Martinsburg Rd, illustrates the enduring connectivity between these historic villages and the river crossings that originally fostered their growth.
