About this map

Earlysville serves as a central hub in this section of Albemarle County, where the Earlysville Post Office and Buck Mountain Cemetery mark the historic core of the community. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the North Fork Rivanna River, which is fed by numerous tributaries such as Jacobs Run and Marsh Run. Evidence of the area's agricultural and industrial heritage is visible in place names like Advance Mills, Dunns Shop, and Mill Run, reflecting a time when local waterways powered rural industry.

Modern development and infrastructure are centered around the Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport, which sits alongside newer residential pockets like Jefferson Village and Bedford Hills. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous family and community burial grounds documented here, including Pine Ridge Cemetery, Mount Zion Cemetery, and Estes Cemetery. The terrain is characterized by prominent rises such as Frays Mountain and Piney Mountain, while the northern reaches transition into the rolling lands near Quinque and Midway.
