About this map

The James River forms the southern boundary of this Piedmont landscape, defining a corridor of historic settlements and agrarian land south of the Louisa and Hanover County lines. Centered on the crossroads of Perkinsville and Oilville, the area is characterized by a dense network of tributaries including Beaverdam Creek and Horsepen Creek that carve through the Goochland County countryside.

Further south, the rural character transitions toward the riverbanks at Thorncliff and Crozier. The map details specialized land use, including the Virginia State Farm Pond Number Three, alongside private water bodies such as Lake Fullstream and Carter and Harrell Lake. The placement of these settlements and named ponds reflects a long-standing reliance on the local hydrography, with small communities like Cardwell clustered near the many forks of Genito Creek.
