About this map

Carrsville and Elwood anchor this landscape along the boundary between the City of Suffolk and Isle of Wight County. The terrain is defined by an extensive network of wetlands, including the wide reaches of Beaverdam Swamp and Kingsale Swamp. These natural drainage systems have long dictated the placement of local thoroughfares like S Quay Rd and Ruritan Blvd, which skirt the lower-lying areas to connect smaller clusters of settlement.

Genealogists and local researchers can pinpoint historical sites such as Beaver Dam Cem and smaller intersections like Maynards Crossroads and Boaz. The presence of the Brandywine Farms Airport and the distinct industrial or residential layout near Camptown reflects the evolving land use in this part of southeastern Virginia. From the headwaters of Johnson Creek to the banks of Alemar Pond, the map provides a detailed view of the region's rural character and hydraulic geography.
