About this map

Homeville sits at a crossroads in the heart of Sussex County, where the agricultural landscape of south-central Virginia meets a complex network of waterways. The Nottoway River winds through the central portion of this sheet, joined by numerous tributaries such as Nebletts Mill Run and Austin Br. This geography is defined by extensive wetlands, most notably the Assamoosick Swamp to the northeast and Hunting Quarter Swamp in the southwest, reflecting the low-lying drainage patterns typical of the coastal plain region.

Local history researchers will find several established rural settlements including Littleton and Lumberton. The infrastructure of the early 21st century is represented by a web of local roads named for families and landmarks, such as Peters Bridge Rd, Jennie Ln, and Old Forty Rd. Smaller water features like Honey Pond and Renney Pond dot the landscape between the larger swamplands and the river valley.
