1971 Map of Ellisboro

About this map

Ellisboro and the surrounding rural communities of Rockingham County were documented in the early 1970s, showcasing a landscape defined by traditional agriculture and late-century modernizations. The Norfolk And Western railroad winds through the terrain, serving the northern reaches near the Dan River and Reed Creek. Local life is anchored by numerous small country parishes and meeting houses such as Ellisboro Ch, Sardis Ch, and The Little Country Ch, many situated alongside established family burial grounds like Woodland Cem.
