About this map

Kempsville and its surrounding crossroads serve as the focal point of this late-1940s survey of southeastern Virginia, showing a landscape defined by the transition from rural farms to expanding residential clusters. The Norfolk Southern railway and the Currituck Branch bisect the region, connecting named hubs like Glen Rock, Greenwich, and Euclid. The map documents a significant network of African American educational and religious life, including the Princess Anne Co Training Sch and the Union Kempsville Sch and Ch.
