2013 Map of Chula

About this map

The Appomattox River winds across this section of Amelia County, serving as a primary geographic anchor for the dispersed rural communities of the early 21st century. Historically significant sites such as Giles Mill and the crossing at Giles Bridge suggest a landscape shaped by early water-powered industry and essential river transit. Small settlement clusters like Chula, Masons Corner, and Fieldstown are connected by a network of secondary roads, including Grub Hill Church Rd and Genito Rd. The map reveals a transition toward conservation and aviation with the presence of the Amelia WMA and Hill Top Airport, while agricultural roots persist at Oakmulgee Dairy. Numerous tributaries like Flat Creek and Nibbs Cr carve through the terrain, defining the drainage patterns that have influenced land use and property boundaries for generations.
