About this map

Brookeville and the growing suburban center of Olney anchor this modern-day topographic survey of Montgomery County. The landscape reflects a mix of preserved history and modern development, with early ecclesiastical sites like the Salem United Methodist Cem and Saint Lukes Episcopal Cem providing genealogical landmarks amidst newer residential neighborhoods like Olney Mill and Cherrywood.

Natural features define the northern and eastern reaches of the sheet, where the Hawlings River and Patuxent River feed into the Triadelphia Reservoir. The boundary with Howard County follows the river’s path, while a network of established corridors like New Hampshire Ave and Olney Sandy Spring RD connect the historic villages of Sandy Spring and Ashton. For local historians, the map preserves the location of many family-named crossroads and established parks such as Griffith Park.
