About this map

The James River carves a deep loop through this landscape, marking the convergence of Amherst, Appomattox, and Campbell Counties. The northern bank is anchored by the industrial and residential growth of Madison Heights, while the southern reaches of Lynchburg appear along the river's bend near Percivals Island. This section of the river valley is historically defined by the transport and milling economy of the Piedmont, evidenced by several named landmarks such as Brightwell Mill, Galts Mill, and the early industrial site at Oxford Furnace. Significant genealogical resources are scattered throughout the quadrangle, including the Tyreeanna United Methodist Church Cem and the Arch Creek Burial Society Cem. The terrain is characterized by prominent heights like Mt Athos and Galts Mill Mtn, which overlook the river's winding path past Buzzard Islands and Feagans Island.
