1968 Map of Lottsburg

About this map

Cherry Point Neck and Pea Neck define the water-bound character of this Northern Neck peninsula during the late 1960s. The landscape is a network of coastal inlets and freshwater impoundments, including Gardy Millpond and Fallins Millpond, which historicize the region's agricultural and industrial reliance on local waterways. Small crossroads settlements like Callao and Lottsburg serve as the primary hubs, connected by a winding road system that links numerous country churches such as Lively Hope Ch, Melrose Ch, and Bethany Ch. The topography reveals a transition from the tidal reaches of Lodge Creek and Glebe Creek to the interior drainage of Totuskey Creek. Local genealogy and land use patterns are evidenced by family-named landmarks like Walkers Corner, Reynolds Corner, and Gillick Corner, while the presence of an Airfield near Lottsburg reflects mid-century infrastructure developments.
