About this map

Lebanon serves as the focal point of this southwestern Virginia landscape, situated between the prominent ridges of Copper Ridge and Clinch Mountain. The town's layout is centered around the Lebanon Post Office, with surrounding residential clusters like Slabtown and Spring City providing a look at the community's local geography. The winding Clinch River dominates the northern half of the quadrangle, punctuated by geographic markers like Big Falls and the secluded Pucketts Hole.

For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with family burial grounds, including the Musick Cemetery, Combs Cemetery, and Jessee Cemetery. Small, named settlements such as Artrip, Coulwood, and Stone Bruise are scattered throughout the valley floors and hollows, often near water sources like Big Cedar Creek or Thompson Creek. This survey details the intersection of historic rural settlements with the evolving infrastructure of Russell County, from the Charles Hayes Gilmer Bridge to the quiet reaches of Glade Hollow.
