About this map

Saint Michaels sits at the heart of this coastal landscape, defined by the intricate waterways of the Chesapeake Bay's eastern shore. The geography is dominated by the Miles River and Broad Creek, which carve out a series of significant landforms including Wye Island and Miles River Neck. This 2014 survey reveals a dense pattern of waterfront settlements and housing developments, such as Gullwing Villas, Quail Hollow, and Swan Villas, reflecting the region's contemporary residential character.

Beyond the primary town, the map documents numerous smaller communities and family-named landmarks like Copperville, Tunis Mills, and Porters Pride. Genealogists will find interest in the documented burial sites, including Saint Lukes Cem and Saint Stephens Graveyard. The shoreline is heavily articulated with distinct points like Hambleton Point and Fairview Point, illustrating the deep connection between the land and the surrounding waters of Eastern Bay and Shaw Bay.
