The Nanticoke River defines the landscape of western Sussex County in this mid-1940s survey, serving as a primary artery for the Steamboat Route connecting inland ports. The river system supports a network of landings and crossings essential to the regional economy, including Cannons Ferry, Baileys Landing, and Ellis Wharf. Commercial activity is further evidenced by historic industrial sites such as Stephens Mill and the Old Furnace Mill, which hint at the area's transition from early iron production to milling.
