2019 Map of Madisonville

About this map

Madisonville and the hamlet of Taro anchor this rural landscape along the borders of Charlotte, Appomattox, and Prince Edward counties. The terrain is defined by the headwaters of numerous drainages, including Cub Cr and Spring Cr, which carve through the Piedmont hills. A series of flood control structures, including Roanoke Cr Site 4a Lake, Roanoke Cr Site 5b Lake, and Roanoke Cr Site 6a Lake, indicate modern water management efforts in the Roanoke Creek watershed. For researchers, several small burial grounds such as Salem Cem and Mount Lyle Cem are documented near established landmarks like Lyle Mtn. The dense network of secondary roads, such as Little Cub Rd and Darlington Heights Rd, reflects the long-standing agricultural and residential patterns of this central Virginia interior.
