2022 Map of Carson

About this map

The borderlands of Dinwiddie and Prince George counties are defined by a complex network of wetlands and creek drainages south of Petersburg. This landscape transitions from the well-defined waters of Hatcher Run and Gravelly Run into the dense, marshy reaches of Jones Hole Swamp and Warwick Swamp. Local history is anchored by settlements like Reams and Rowanta, while the cultural landscape is marked by numerous family and community landmarks such as Little Zion Cem and the Confederate Cem. The area is geographically dominated by the Rowanty Cr watershed, where numerous small tributaries like Brick Kiln Br and Fox Br weave through the terrain. This modern survey demonstrates the persistence of traditional land names even as the region remains largely defined by its intricate hydrography, including Perkins Pond and Indian Swamp Pond.
