2016 Map of Beulahville

About this map

Beulahville and the surrounding coastal plain of King William County are defined by a network of creeks and millponds that flow toward the Mattaponi River. This landscape reflects a long history of water-powered industry and rural community life, evidenced by the numerous ponds like Dublin Millpond, Mitchell Millpond, and Herring Cr Millpond distributed across the drainage basins of Herring Cr and Fork Bridge Cr. Small crossroads and settlements such as Epworth, Upshaw, and Venter serve as local anchors, many centered around established congregations and resting places like the Epworth Methodist Church Cem and Beulah Church Cem. The southern portion of the map transitions into the low-lying reaches of Governor Swamp and Aylett Cr, while modern commerce congregates near Central Garage and Midway.
