About this map

Bowling Green serves as the focal point for this wartime survey of Caroline County, illustrating a landscape transitioning under the requirements of national defense. The northern half of the region is dominated by the A P Hill Military Reservation, with its Reservation Boundary cutting through established agricultural lands and older crossroads. The local economy and infrastructure of the early 1940s are visible through the Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac railroad line and traditional water-powered sites such as Broaddus Mill and Elliots Mill on Mill Creek.
