About this map

The town of Floyd serves as the central hub of this Virginia landscape, situated near the headwaters of several key drainage systems. To the south of the town center, the Jacksonville Cemetery provides a focal point for genealogical research, while the Floyd Post Office marks the community's civic heart. The area's topography is defined by the proximity of the Blue Ridge, with prominent landmarks such as Stockers Knob and the twin peaks of The Haycocks rising above the surrounding terrain.

Water plays a critical role in the region's geography and historical industry, evidenced by the presence of Shelors Mill in the southwest and Scott Dam on the West Fork Little River. A complex network of creeks, including Dodd Creek, Oldfield Creek, and Pine Creek, carves through the land, illustrating the rural character of this upland community. Named roads such as Christiansburg Pike NE and Slusher Store Rd NE suggest established travel corridors between smaller settlements like Poff.
