1966 Map of Nokesville

About this map

Nokesville and Bristow anchor this 1960s survey of Prince William County, situated along the Southern railway corridor. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several major waterways, including Broad Run, Kettle Run, and Cedar Run, which historically supported local industry like Daniels Mill. This edition includes purple photogrammetric revisions from 1971, documenting suburban growth and infrastructure changes such as the development around Manassas Municipal Airport (Davis Field). To the south, the map captures a portion of the Quantico Marine Corps Schools near Camp Upshur, while rural life is marked by numerous family-named landmarks including White Hall Cem and Valley View Cem. Smaller crossroads such as Aden and Kings Crossroads illustrate the persistent rural character of the Virginia Piedmont during a period of encroaching regional expansion.
