1967 Map of Andersonville

About this map

Andersonville and New Store anchor this central Virginia landscape, which is defined by the convergence of several major timber and wildlife preserves. The area showcases a dense network of watercourses including the Willis River, Slate River, and the Appomattox River along the southern border. Public lands such as the Appomattox-Buckingham State Forest and the Horsepen State Wildlife Management Area dominate the topography, reflecting the region's historical reliance on forestry and conservation. Small rural congregations are central to the local geography, with numerous historic houses of worship like First Liberty Ch, Second Liberty Ch, and Chestnut Grove Ch scattered across the upland ridges. Settlement patterns follow the winding secondary roads that connect isolated communities like Enonville and Arcanum, providing a clear record of the mid-century Piedmont rural structure.
