How Far From Bayberry to ...
We spend a lot of time looking through Gazetteers, Almanacs & Directories that were published in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Many of the Gazetteers include the distance from a community such as Bayberry to various places of note, such as the White House.
With a nod to our favorite Gazetteers, the straight-line distance beginning in Bayberry and extending to:
- Annapolis, which is the Seat of Anne Arundel County, lies just to the South.
- Annapolis, which is the State Capital of Maryland, lies just to the south (S).
- The White House (Washington, DC) is 32 miles [51.5 km]<1> to the west southwest (WSW). If you could walk a straight line from Bayberry to White House, with an average speed<4> of 2.2 miles [3.5 km] per hour, it would take most of two days to make the trip. A horse and buggy averaging 3.2 miles [5.1 km] per hour would take just over a day.
- The shortest distance<5> to Jerusalem (specifically the Temple Mount and the Dome of the Rock) is 5,867 miles [9,442 km] and it lies to the northeast (NE).<6>

Footnotes ...
| <1> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or point-to-point) distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Bayberry) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Bayberry. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 39.0615, Longitude: -76.4733 In this case, the coordinates for Bayberry have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
