1967 Map of Gates

About this map

The Virginia North Carolina border bisects this landscape of lowland swamps and scattered rural communities in the mid-1960s. Small hamlets like Pittmantown, Savages Crossroads, and Reynoldson appear as hubs for the surrounding agricultural and timber lands, connected by a network of roads that wind around extensive wetlands such as Marsh Swamp and Chapel Swamp. The transition from Nansemond County, Virginia, to Gates County, North Carolina, is marked by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad, which cuts a sharp diagonal through the terrain, serving the village of Gates.
