1894 Map of Fredericksburg

USGS Topo · Published 1926

About this map

Fredericksburg and the surrounding Tidewater region are depicted here during the late nineteenth century, showing a landscape still defined by its major river arteries and post-Civil War rail connections. The Potomac River and Rappahannock River dominate the geography, serving as critical transit corridors between Virginia and Maryland. Along the Rappahannock, the proximity of Port Royal and Port Conway highlights the river's historical role in commerce, while the Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac RR marks the corridor of inland movement through Stafford and Spotsylvania. The map provides significant detail for genealogists, recording numerous rural landmarks such as Nindes Store, Grace Church, and Rappahannock Academy. Small landings and points like Maryland Point and Mathias Point illustrate the maritime character of the Northern Neck and the Maryland shore in Charles County before the mid-twentieth century bridge-building era.
