1965 Map of Brandon

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The James River and Chickahominy River converge in this mid-century survey of the Virginia Tidewater. The landscape is defined by the tidal reaches of Eagle Bottom and Sunken Marsh, where small settlements like Binns Hall, Rustic, and Holdercroft dot the high ground above the wetlands. This era shows a transition from traditional river-fronting life to more modern infrastructure, marked by the prominent Pipeline cutting diagonally across the terrain and the emergence of recreation at Chickahominy Haven Marina. Genealogists and local historians will find several rural spiritual centers, including Mt Pleasant Ch, Liberty Ch, and Jerusalem Ch, while the southern shore near Brandon reveals a pattern of historic river-bend landings and points such as Lower Trees Point and Bachelor Point.
