Notes: Calverton, the originally county seat of Calvert County, was one of the few towns in Colonial Southern Maryland. The discovery of an 1862 plat of this town, the earliest know plat of a Maryland town, greatly added to the information available on the town.

Annapolis and the District of Columbia were unique in that their plans did not resemble those common amongst other English colonies.
