1968 Map of Clarksville South

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The John H Kerr Reservoir dominates this Southside Virginia landscape, its sprawling shoreline defining the border between Virginia and North Carolina. Following the creation of the reservoir, the topography reflects a mix of water-based recreation and traditional rural settlements. To the north, the town of Clarksville serves as a hub, connected by the Southern railroad and the Norfolk Franklin And Danville line. The map captures the transition of the land from agricultural use to public spaces like Occoneechee State Park and the Longwood Public Use Area. Smaller communities such as Buffalo Junction and Soudan persist along the transport corridors, while localized landmarks like Hillcrest Sch, Mt Ararat Ch, and Oakhurst Cem provide essential anchor points for genealogists and local historians tracing family roots in Mecklenburg and Granville counties.
