About this map

The Bull Run Mountains dominate the southeastern landscape of this 1968 survey, forming a natural boundary between Loudoun and Prince William counties. This area of Northern Virginia is defined by its traditional equestrian and agrarian character, exemplified by the Glenwood Racetrack north of Middleburg. The settlement pattern follows the Little River and Goose Creek, where established communities like Aldie, Dover, and Stoke are situated.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant landmarks across the terrain, from the Hill Sch and St Stephens the Martyr Ch in the west to the Bull Run Ch and Hickory Grove in the east. Numerous family and community burial sites are documented, including Sharon Cem, Memorial Cem, and Solon Cem. The map also captures the early development of Bull Run Mountain Estates and traces industrial activity through several Quarries located along the mountain ridges.
