2016 Map of Midlothian

About this map

The James River snakes through the heart of this Virginia landscape, marking the historical boundaries between Goochland, Henrico, Powhatan, and Chesterfield counties. Near the river's bend, the community of Manakin and the residential growth of Manakin Farms sit north of Sabot Island, while the southern bank transition toward the suburban patterns of Midlothian. This survey documents a region defined by its crossing points and long-standing landmarks, including the Boscobel Ferry Rd and numerous historic burial sites such as Saint Marys Cem and Mount Pisgah Cem. Local hydrography is characterized by several tributaries like Bernards Creek and Tuckahoe Cr, alongside developed water bodies like Lake Patrick Henry and Salisbury Lake. These features, along with the Southern railroad line, illustrate the evolving infrastructure of a region balancing its rural riverfront heritage with modern expansion.
