1972 Map of Passapatanzy

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The settlement of Passapatanzy sits at the heart of this orthophotoquad, which captures the distinct land-use patterns of King George County during the early 1970s. This specialized survey, produced through aerial photography taken in April 1972, reveals a landscape defined by the convergence of major waterways. The north is dominated by the broad Potomac River and the winding inlet of Potomac Creek, while the southern edge of the sheet follows the meandering course of the Rappahannock River. Unlike standard topographic maps, this imagery provides a direct look at the distribution of agricultural fields and dense woodlands, showing how the rural community of Passapatanzy remained largely agrarian and tied to the peninsula's natural drainage systems.
