1943 Map of Fine Creek Mills

About this map

The James River and the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor define the northern edge of this 1943 landscape, where the waters of the Little River merge and flow past Sabot Island. Moving south from the river, the terrain transitions into the dense creek networks of Powhatan County, including Fine Creek and Jones Creek. This era of the Virginia countryside is marked by small, creek-side communities and rural institutions, such as Fine Creek Mills and the Subletts Sch.
