2022 Map of Meherrin

About this map

Meherrin and Scholfield anchor this rural landscape along the border of Prince Edward and Lunenburg counties. The topography is defined by the headwaters of the N Fork Nottoway River and the N Meherrin River, with numerous tributaries like Tussekiah Cr and Ledbetter Cr carving a complex network of ridges and valleys. This modern survey illustrates the repurposing of the region's historic rail corridors into the Tobacco Heritage Trl, which winds through the central portion of the quadrangle. Local genealogy is preserved at sites like Bruce Cem and Spencer Cem, while the agrarian and industrial past is reflected in landmarks such as Blakenship Mill Pond. The map provides a detailed view of current road networks, including Moores Ordinary Rd and Old Peach Tree Rd, showing the continued settlement patterns in the community of Nutbush.
