About this map

Halifax and the Banister River anchor the southern portion of this mid-century survey, which reveals an intricate rural landscape of tobacco-country crossroads and small-scale milling. The community of Scottsburg and the winding course of the Dan River define the lower reaches, while the northern boundary is marked by the Staunton River. This era shows a high density of rural institutions, such as Andrew Farmer Sch and Mount Pleasant Ch, which once served as the social fabric for the surrounding farms.
