Nassawango Creek and its many tributaries, including Forest Grove Branch and Beaverdam Creek, define the water-rich landscape along the Wicomico and Worcester county line. This 2023 survey illustrates a rural region characterized by small settlements such as Wango and Shavox, interconnected by a network of local roads like Sixty Foot Rd and Mount Hermon Rd. The area is notably interspersed with wetlands and low-lying terrain, including Givens Swamp, Bear Swamp, and Franklin Swamp. Genealogists and local historians can locate several rural burial sites throughout the quadrangle, including the Hammond Cem near the Salisbury-Ocean City Wicomico Regional Airport and the Mount Zion United Methodist Cem in the southeastern portion of the map near Powell Branch.
