1967 Map of Briery Branch

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The eastern foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains define this 1960s landscape, where the Dry River and North River drain a complex valley of agricultural settlements and timbered slopes. Along the western edge, the George Washington National Forest covers high ridges like Narrow Back and Fox Ridge, while the valley floor is dotted with long-established communities such as Rawley Springs and Sangerville. The map records a high density of rural social centers, including the Ottobine Sch and numerous country congregations like Spring Creek Ch and Mt Bethel Ch. This era shows the clear demarcation between the managed timberlands of the Paul State Forest and the surrounding farmland, capturing the region just before modern development began to alter the traditional settlement patterns along the Rockingham and Augusta county line.
