1968 Map of Middleburg

About this map

Middleburg and the surrounding horse country of northern Virginia are documented in this 1968 study, with updates through the late 1970s. The landscape is defined by its agrarian roots and social institutions, from the Glenwood Racetrack in the north to the Hill Sch and St Stephens the Martyr Ch in town. As the terrain rises toward the Bull Run Mountains, the map reveals a transition from the established village life of Aldie and Dover to the residential development at Bull Run Mountain Estates. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous recorded burial grounds, including Sharon Cem and Memorial Cem, alongside rural landmarks like Mt Pleasant Ch and Long Branch Ch. Industrial history is preserved in labels for Burnt Mill and various quarries that once utilized the drainage of the Little River and Bull Run.
