About this map

Mattaponi River meanders through this coastal plain landscape, defining the boundary between King William and King and Queen counties. The river's influence is evident in the numerous wetland networks, such as Market Swamp, Exol Swamp, and Indian Town Swamp, which penetrate deep into the surrounding uplands. The namesake settlement of King and Queen Court House sits near the eastern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a focal point for the region alongside smaller communities like Stevensville, Rickahock, and Wakema.

Transport and land use are shaped by the terrain, with historical routes like The Trail and Powhatan Trail navigating the ridges. River-adjacent features like De Farges Bar and various landings, including Scotland Landing, highlight the area's long-standing connection to the waterway. Cultural landmarks such as Cohoke Mill Creek and Indian Mound Ponds hint at the layered human history of this Tidewater region.
