About this map

The Southwest Mountains anchor this landscape of central Virginia, where historic farmstead names and small hamlets cluster along the foothills. The map documents a corridor of settlement stretching from Stony Point down through Cismont and Keswick to the outskirts of Rivanna. These communities are defined by established estates and agricultural tracts, many marked by distinct labels such as Castalia Farm, Cloverfields Farm, and November Hill Farm.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the distribution of family and community burial sites, including Shackelford Cem, Grace Cem, and Saint Johns Cem. The drainage patterns are intricate, with Mechunk Cr and Turkey Run winding through the terrain. Evidence of the region’s shifting political boundaries is visible at the three-way intersection of Albemarle Co, Louisa Co, and Fluvanna Co near the map's southern edge.
