The Saint Martin River and its intricate network of tributaries define this coastal section of the Eastern Shore Delmarva Peninsula. Located along the border of Sussex and Worcester Counties, the landscape transitions from the agricultural hinterlands of Bishopville and Selbyville to the residential developments of Ocean Pines. Genealogists will find several burial grounds of interest, including the Old Saint Martins Cem and Wilgus Cem near Roxana. The southern half of the map illustrates the modern suburban layout of neighborhoods like Tanglewood and South Ocean Pines, while the northern portion retains more rural characteristics around Hudson Crossroads and Bunting. Transportation is anchored by the Maryland and Delaware RR and Dupont Blvd, while water access is provided through numerous prongs and branches such as Slab Bridge Prong and Birch Branch.
