1943 Map of St. Marys City

About this map

St Marys City and the surrounding Tidewater landscape appear in 1943, defined by the deep indentations of the St Marys River and St Inigoes Creek. This coastal environment features a high density of named points and landings, such as Chancellor Pt and Rose Croft Pt, suggesting a community long oriented toward the water for both transport and livelihood. Further inland, small rural centers like Great Mills and Park Hall anchor the road network near the Eastern Branch and Western Branch.
