About this map

The settlement of Norge and the surrounding James City County landscape are defined by a complex network of waterways feeding into the Chickahominy River. Moving inland from the tidal marshes of Bazzard Bay and Nayses Bay, the terrain rises toward the historic corridor of Richmond RD. This survey documents the modern suburban expansion of communities like Lightfoot and Centerville, which contrast with the preserved wooded expanses of the Colonial National Historical Park.

Water management and local industry are evident through features like Warren Mill, the Little Cr Reservoir, and Cranstons Pond. Genealogists and local historians can locate established landmarks such as the James City Chapel Cem and institutional developments like the Thomas Nelson Community Coll - Historic Triangle Campus. The southern reaches are anchored by Five Forks and Jamestown Farms, illustrating the region's transition from colonial crossroads to modern residential centers.
