The Potomac River defines the landscape of this 1940s-era survey, its dramatic bends like Millers Bend and Whitings Neck creating a complex border between Maryland and West Virginia. Following the river's winding northern bank, the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal is a prominent industrial feature, passing through notable points such as Two Locks and Four Locks near Fort Frederick State Park. This period of Maryland history shows a transition from earlier rural industries, evidenced by the Green Spring Furnace and Cushwa Mill, toward modern infrastructure like the Williamsport Power Plant.
