About this map

The Norfolk and Western railroad corridor defines the southern landscape of this mid-century survey, linking the small communities of Wilson and Hebron across the borderlands of Amelia, Nottoway, and Dinwiddie Counties. This rural region is characterized by a dense network of local institutions that served the post-war agrarian population, including the King David Lodge Hall, Mission Light School, and Ammon School. The terrain is marked by numerous watercourses such as Winticomack Creek and Sweathouse Creek, which supported early local industry at sites like Hobbs Mill and its associated Hobbs Mill Ponds. Numerous small rural churches and family-named cemeteries, such as the Windmill Cem and Poplar Hill Church, are scattered throughout the wooded drainage basins of Namozine Creek, providing significant data points for genealogists and local historians studying these Virginia rural crossroads before modern development altered the historic settlement patterns.
