2010 Map of Glenmore

About this map

Rock Island Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Rock Island Creek and Stadon Creek, carve through this section of Buckingham County. Small, established settlements like Glenmore and Smith Store serve as local landmarks within a landscape defined by its hydraulic history, featuring Brill Dam and Fitzgerald Dam. The northern border follows the winding path of the James River, where Mill Creek and Fallsburg Creek contribute to the watershed. In the eastern portion of the quadrangle, Centenary sits near the headwaters of Sharps Creek, while the southern reaches are marked by the community of Ransons. This 2010 survey illustrates the persistent rural settlement patterns of the Virginia interior, where place names like Axtell and Camm reflect long-standing local identities tied to the creek valleys and woodland plateaus.
