1966 Map of Forksville

About this map

The Meherrin River meanders across this mid-1960s landscape, serving as a natural boundary between Lunenburg, Mecklenburg, and Brunswick Counties. The Southern Piedmont terrain is defined by a network of rural crossroads and river crossings, most notably Forksville, where the Seaboard Coast Line railroad and local roads converge. Significant infrastructure is visible along the river, including the Hawthorne High Bridge and Dix Bridge, which facilitate regional transit through the wooded creek bottoms.
