About this map

McKenney serves as the primary hub in this 1963 survey, situated where the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad cuts through the rural landscape of southern Virginia. The community is anchored by a local High Sch and several country churches, including Asbury Ch and Big Bethel Ch. The terrain is deeply carved by a network of drainage systems, most notably the Nottoway River, which forms the boundary between Dinwiddie and Brunswick counties.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of family-named burial sites scattered across the countryside, such as Fitzgerald Cem, Williams Cem, and Madison Cem, reflecting a long-established pattern of local settlement. The inclusion of a Gravel Pit and a web of small creeks like Buckskin Creek and Sappony Creek further defines the local geography, illustrating the transition between mid-century transportation routes and the traditional agricultural and timber lands of the region.
