About this map

Boykins serves as a central hub in this Southern Virginia landscape, where the Meherrin River meanders through a network of wetlands and agricultural tracts. This survey, updated just after the turn of the 21st century, details the geographic transition between the Virginia borderlands and North Carolina. The town of Severn sits just across the state line to the south, while smaller settlements like Branchville and Newsoms define the rural periphery.

A network of local roads such as White Meadow Rd and Old Branchville Rd connects the scattered homesites and agrarian infrastructure. The map documents significant local landmarks including the Beechwood Cemetery and Mann Airport, alongside numerous drainage systems like Tarrara Creek and Burnt Reeds Swamp that dictate the region's land use. These features provide a clear view of the area’s established property lines and community centers at a time of modern rural stability.
