1965 Map of Free Union
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Free Union serves as a central hub in this landscape where the foothills of the Blue Ridge meet the Piedmont. The map documents a period of transition, notably the development of the South Fork Rivanna River Reservoir, which would alter the local hydrology of the South Fork Rivanna River. The area is characterized by numerous small settlements and family-named landmarks like Boonesville, Blackwells, and Nortonsville. A deep religious and community history is evident through the placement of Good Shepherd Ch, Prize Hill Ch, and Wesley Chapel. The terrain is marked by significant rises including Buck Mountain, Green Mountain, and Pigeon Top Mtn, while the Peavine Trail suggests traditional routes through the various hollows such as Blackwells Hollow and Rockybar Hollow.
