About this map

Middle River and its various tributaries, such as Jennings Branch and Whisky Creek, define the agricultural and residential landscape of this part of Augusta County. Centered on Churchville, the area shows a pattern of small rural settlements including Lone Fountain, West View, and Swoope. The presence of Trimbles Mill and several smaller water control structures like Smithleigh Dam indicates a long-standing relationship with the local waterways.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of family and community burial grounds, including Crosby Cemetery, Green Hill Cemetery, and Hunters Cemetery. The southern portion of the sheet is marked by Camp Shenandoah, while the western edge transitions toward the ridge-lines near Buffalo Gap. Roads with descriptive names like Heizers Tanyard Rd and Hangers Mill Rd hint at the historical industry and commerce that once thrived in these valley communities.
