About this map

Bull Mountain and No Business Mountain dominate the central topography of this Patrick County landscape, creating a dramatic corridor for the drainage of the South Mayo River and its numerous tributaries. The settlement pattern is concentrated in the southern valley, where Patrick Springs serves as a primary hub, complete with its own Patrick Springs Post Office and nearby Patrick Springs Cemetery. Further east, the community of Critz sits along the roadway network, while Reynolds Mill indicates a history of local industry tied to the watercourses of Mill Creek.

Genealogists will find significant detail in the various burial grounds scattered across the terrain, including Liberty Cemetery to the north and the expansive Patrick Memorial Gardens. The map traces a complex network of rural routes such as Via Mountain Ln and Pole Branch Ln, which follow the natural contours of knobs like Chestnut Knob and Richwood Knob. The transition from the high ridges of Buffalo Ridge to the lower creek basins illustrates a classic Appalachian Piedmont settlement structure.
