About this map

The James River and Chickahominy River define this 1918 portrait of Tidewater Virginia, where maritime commerce and agricultural history intersect at prominent landings and wharves. Along the riverbanks, established estates and hubs like Berkeley, Westover, and Upper Brandon represent centuries of settlement, supported by a network of river access points including Harrisons Landing and Stanley Wharf. Inland, the landscape is dotted with early 20th-century rural infrastructure, including numerous schools such as the Samaria Indian School and Greenward School.
