2022 Map of Dawson Crossroads

About this map

Crowells Crossroads and Dawson Crossroads anchor this rural landscape in Halifax County, where the topography is defined by the winding drainages of Conoconnara Swamp and Beech Swamp. The map reveals a deeply established agricultural network, marked by numerous family-named landmarks and infrastructure such as Douglas Hill Farm Rd and W W Cotton Farm Rd. For those tracing family histories in the region, the survey provides precise locations for Hales Cem, Westray Cem, and Pittman Cem. The local economy and transit patterns are further evidenced by the Dunroamin Farms Airport and a dense web of rural routes like Thirteen Bridges Rd and Old 125 Rd, which follow the higher ground between the many branches of Hales Millpond Br.
