About this map

The North Fork Shenandoah River cuts through the northern edge of this Rockingham County landscape, where the town of Broadway serves as a primary hub. The region is defined by a dense network of watercourses and agricultural valley lands, with Linville Creek and Daphna Creek flowing through several small, established communities. The map highlights numerous historically significant settlements such as Lacey Spring, Edom, and Linville, alongside the distinctive site of State Prison Camp Number 8.

Genealogists and local researchers can trace numerous family-named roads like Jesse Bennett Way and Wampler Rd, which reflect the long-standing land ownership patterns in the area. Landforms like Round Hill and Simmers Hollow provide geographic context to the rural homesteads and churchyards, including the centrally located Pine Grove Cemetery. The road network, featuring routes like Lacey Spring Rd, illustrates the connectivity between these tight-knit Shenandoah Valley hamlets.
