1892 Map of Buckingham

USGS Topo · Published 1941

About this map

The Richmond and Alleghany Railroad traces the winding path of the river through this central Virginia landscape, connecting vital riverfront points like Browns Landing and Howardville. Surveyed by L.C. Fletcher in the late 19th century, the map reveals a region defined by its diverse terrain, from the ridges of the George Washington National Forest to the productive lowlands. Industrial and community markers are prominent, including the Soap Stone Quarry near Schuyler and local educational and spiritual hubs like the Klemburg School and Bagby Church. The county seat at Lovingston serves as a central point for the network of smaller settlements such as Faber Mills and Covesville, illustrating the transition from mountain-dependent economies to the rail-connected trade centers that flourished along the waterway corridors.
