About this map

Charlotte Court House serves as the focal point for this Virginia landscape, where the rural topography is defined by the headwaters of the Roanoke River. The settlement pattern in the late 1960s reflects a community structured around civic life and education, anchored by institutions like the Randolph-Henry Sch and Central High Sch. In the western portion of the sheet, the village of Phenix sits along the Norfolk and Western railroad, marked by the nearby Phenix Lookout Tower and Jeffress Memorial Sch.

Smaller crossroads like Womacks, Fears Corner, and Chandlers Forks are scattered across the terrain, often located near the numerous branches that feed into Wards Fork and Roanoke Creek. The presence of several historic congregations, including Mt Tirzah Ch, Morrison Grove Ch, and St Louis Ch, along with the Evergreen Cem, provides significant detail for researchers tracing family history in this portion of Charlotte County.
