About this map

The Appomattox River winds through the heart of this late-nineteenth-century landscape, serving as a primary natural boundary between the counties of Amelia and Powhatan and Chesterfield. This era shows a Piedmont region defined by small agricultural settlements and specialized mills, such as Giles Mill and Belmont Mills. The transportation network is in a period of significant transition, where established river crossings like Goode Bridge and Eppes Bridge coexist with an expanding rail system.
