About this map

Albemarle Soapstone Company operations anchor this 1920s landscape, illustrating the specialized quarrying industry that shaped central Virginia south of Charlottesville. The map captures the infrastructure of the era, from the Southern Railway passing through Covesville and North Garden to the Chesapeake and Ohio line following the James River through Scottsville. This survey preserves a dense network of early 20th-century rural life, including numerous family-named landmarks like Heard Mtn and Butler Mountain.
