About this map

Totuskey Creek defines the landscape of central Richmond County, Virginia, carving a winding path through the timbered lowlands of the Northern Neck. In the late 1960s, this area remained largely rural, centered on established crossroads and farming communities like Haynesville and Emmerton. The map documents a traditional Southern social geography, noted by the density of local landmarks such as Jerusalem Ch, Mulberry Ch, and the Totuskey Ch Cem.

Industry and local infrastructure are represented by Moores Mill and various water bodies including Garlands Millpond and Hogans Millpond, while the presence of State Prison Camp No 17 and the Drive-in Theater reflects the diverse land use of the mid-century era. Education centers like Rappahannock High Sch and County High Sch anchor the residential zones near Warsaw, providing critical points of reference for local historians and genealogists researching the county's mid-20th-century development.
