1958 Map of Appomattox

Further south, the town of Appomattox sits as a central hub along the Norfolk and Western line, surrounded by a network of rural communities such as Evergreen and Spout Spring. The map documents a dense distribution of country churches and family-named cemeteries, including Earlys Chapel Cem and Peaceful Grove Ch, which illustrate the localized settlement patterns of the late 1950s. The presence of the Appomattox State Forest and various schools like Mt Airy Sch further highlights the balance of timber resources and community infrastructure in this part of the Virginia Piedmont.
