About this map

The Patuxent River corridor and the Chesapeake coast define the landscape of Calvert County in this late-19th-century survey. The geography reveals a heavy reliance on water-based transit, documented by numerous riverine landmarks such as Magruder Ferry, White Landing, and Lyons Cr. Wharf. Inland, the proposed path of the Drum Point Railroad Proposed cuts a north-south line through the peninsula, signaling a transition toward rail that would eventually compete with the established docks at Lower Marlboro and Benedict.
