2011 Map of Brandon
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
The Row and the historic riverfront properties of Brandon define this Tidewater landscape where the James River and Chickahominy River converge. The area is characterized by centuries-old landholdings and small settlements like Cherry Hall and Oldfield, connected by a network of rural roads such as Wilcox Neck Rd and The Glebe Ln. Waterfront activity is evident at Ritchie Wharf and Brickyard Landing, while the interior shows the drainage patterns of Tomahund Creek and Morris Creek. Genealogists may find value in the location of the Brandon Plantation Cemetery, which sits near the southern bank of the James. The topography reveals the complex shoreline of Bush Neck and Big Marsh Point, illustrating the persistent relationship between these agricultural lands and the tidal waters of coastal Virginia.
