About this map

Disputanta and Newville anchor this 2016 topographical landscape in Prince George County, where the transition from upland ridges to sprawling wetland complexes is clearly visible. The southern portion of the map is defined by the significant hydrology of Otterdam Swamp and Second Swamp, alongside the notable Blackwater Swamp which meanders through the central terrain. These lowlands are bridged at points like Hitchcock Bridge, reflecting the historical challenge of navigating the region's dense drainage networks.

Local history and genealogy are well-represented by several established burial sites, including Bethlehem Cem, Lebanon Cem, and Newville Cem, which are scattered among the timberlands and small clearings. Water features such as Lake Binford and Thackets Ponds provide further geographic orientation. The map documents a blend of modern rural development, seen in the winding residential routes like Old Stage Rd and Silvercrest Ln, and the enduring natural drainage patterns of Walls Run and Mike Run.
