About this map

Lovingston serves as the focal point of this Nelson County landscape, anchored by the Nelson County Courthouse. The topography is defined by the winding course of the Rockfish River and a series of prominent peaks and hollows, including Sugarloaf Mtn and Simpson Hollow. This 2019 survey documents a rural corridor where historic mill sites like Woods Mill and Lawthorne Mill sit alongside established crossroads such as Gullysville and Adial.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and resting places, such as the Adial Cem, Cedar Grove Cem, and Ridgecrest Cem. The map illustrates the persistent road network connecting these upland communities, from the passage through Thoroughfare Gap to the crossing at Stage Bridge. This detailed study reflects the intersection of agricultural heritage and mountainous terrain, preserved through named features like Woodridge Field and The Horseshoe.
