1963 Map of De Witt

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

De Witt and its surrounding rural communities are captured in the early 1960s, defined by a landscape of creek drainages and small crossroads settlements. The Seaboard Coast Line railroad cuts diagonally across the southeastern corner, anchoring the village of De Witt where the De Witt Sch, Bott Memorial Ch, and Mt Calvary Ch are clustered. This period shows a transition in land use, as traditional family landmarks like the Meredith Cem and Booth Cem sit alongside more modern infrastructure including a large Pipeline and Telephone lines traversing the timbered terrain. The northern half of the map is particularly water-dense, featuring Colemans Lake and the branching reaches of White Oak Creek and Butterwood Creek. Small commerce and social hubs like Wilkinsons Store and Baltimore Corner demonstrate the dispersed nature of Dinwiddie County's rural geography.
