1944 Map of Solomons Island
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The Patuxent River meets the Chesapeake Bay at this strategic maritime junction, where the 1944 shoreline reveals a landscape increasingly defined by military activity and deep-water access. The U S Naval Reservation dominates the southern bank, while the northern peninsula is a network of protective coves like Hellen Creek and Mill Creek. The waterfront communities of Solomons and Johnstown serve as central hubs for navigation near The Narrows, maintaining a traditional coastal settlement pattern even as Lexington Park begins to develop inland. This era captures the transition of the region from a quiet bay-side community to a vital naval outpost. Local landmarks like the Ebenezer Ch and the Lighthouse at Drum Point anchor the landscape, providing essential points of reference for genealogists and local historians tracing the development of Calvert and St. Mary's counties.
