1940 Map of Lake Drummond

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Dismal Swamp dominates this 1940 survey, a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainage and transport engineering. At its heart lies the circular expanse of Lake Drummond, connected to the wider region via the Feeger Ditch and the Dismal Swamp Canal. The map captures a transitional era for the local timber and shipping industries, showing the Lumber RR penetrating deep into the swamp's interior while the Intracoastal Waterway and the George Washington Highway provided vital north-south transit corridors.
