1960 Map of Columbia
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The Rivanna River snakes through the southern reaches of this landscape, marking a historical corridor of transport and industry where the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad meets the water at Columbia. This intersection of rail and river supported local commerce at Rivanna Mills and Holmhead, while an extensive network of country roads connected inland settlements like Stage Junction and Kents Store. The map preserves the locations of numerous rural institutions, from the Columbia School to various neighborhood houses of worship including Zion Church and Byrd Chapel.
