2019 Map of Fort Belvoir

About this map

The Potomac River shoreline and the wooded inlets of Pohick Bay and Gunston Cove dominate this corner of Northern Virginia. As an area with deep colonial and military roots, the landscape is dotted with ancestral sites such as the Millan - Potter Family Cem and the Pohick Episcopal Church Cem, alongside the historic grounds of Fort Belvoir. The 2019 survey documents the extensive Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail as it winds through Mason Neck and Pohick Neck, connecting waterfront communities like Colchester and Gunston Manor. Significant aviation and defense infrastructure is present at Davison Army Airfield, while the proximity of Lorton and Newington illustrates the modern residential expansion surrounding these historical corridors. The map provides a detailed view of family landmarks, including the Remey Tomb and Fairfax Grave, preserved amidst contemporary suburban development.
