About this map

Virginia Military Institute and Washington and Lee University anchor the cultural landscape of this early 1930s survey of Rockbridge County. The area is defined by a dense network of mountain gaps and river valleys, where the Maury River and South River converge near the growing hubs of Lexington and Buena Vista. Industry and agriculture are deeply intertwined, evidenced by scattered milling operations like Brownsburg Mill and Monmouth Mill, and the presence of the Norfolk and Western RR facilitating local trade.
