About this map

The Hanover County Courthouse serves as the focal point for this region where the boundaries of Caroline, King William, and Hanover Counties converge. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Pamunkey River, which separates the low-lying wetlands and bottomlands from the upland settlements. Significant historical crossroads and small communities such as Etna Mills, Mangohick, and Frog Level are connected by a network of rural routes including King William Rd and Dawn Blvd.

Genealogists will find several notable burial sites and religious landmarks, including the Mount Horeb Baptist Church Cem and the Bethel United Methodist Cem. The area’s agrarian and industrial history is visible through water features like Gravatts Millpond and named crossings such as Normans Bridge. This map provides a clear view of the mid-Atlantic Tidewater interior, where large ponds like Ballard Pond and named creeks like Herring Creek dominate the local geography.
