2019 Map of Mayodan

About this map

The confluence of the Mayo River and the Dan River defines the landscape surrounding the established textile and tobacco towns of northern Rockingham County. In the southern portion of this region, Madison and Mayodan represent a significant cluster of industrial and residential history, with numerous local landmarks like the Madison Covered Bridge and the Mayodan Moravian Graveyard. Further north, Stoneville sits near the upper reaches of the river system, serving as another anchor for the surrounding rural communities. The terrain transitions from the lowlands of Dan Valley to more prominent rises such as Brush Mtn and Cedder Mtn. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial grounds throughout the area, from the Stoneville Municipal Cem to smaller family and community plots including Beaver Island Cem and Glenns Chapel Cem. Bridges such as Lindsays Bridge and Collins Bridge highlight the historical importance of river crossings in connecting these Piedmont settlements.
