1942 Map of Partlow

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

North Anna River defines the southern boundary of this rural Piedmont landscape, where the confluence of several counties meets amidst a network of small family-named crossroads and rural outposts. The Corps of Engineers survey details a pre-war community structure centered around general stores and historic congregational sites, such as Duerson Store and the nearby Wallers Church. Moving through the undulating terrain, the map traces the critical transit points over local waterways, including Smiths Mill Bridge and Davenport Bridge, which connected the disparate settlements of Lewiston and Partlow. This 1942 depiction reveals an agricultural region still heavily reliant on its river crossings and neighborhood centers like Chewnings Corner and Harris Store, providing a clear view of the road network before the expansion of modern highways altered the local geography.
