About this map

Petersburg National Battlefield dominates the northwestern portion of this mid-1990s survey, illustrating the preserved ground of the historic siege lines adjacent to Petersburg. The landscape is a transition between the established city and the sprawling Fort Lee Military Reservation. Transport and infrastructure are central to the area's layout, with the Norfolk and Western railroad cutting through the terrain and several modern interchanges, such as Interchange 3 near New Bohemia, defining the local travel corridors.

The rural character of Prince George County is visible through numerous named wetlands and ponds, including Blackwater Swamp, Second Swamp, and Izaak Walton Pond. For genealogists and local historians, several burial sites are documented, notably Southlawn Memorial Park (Cem) and Mt Sinai Mem Park(Cem). The presence of Industrie Waste Ponds and Sand and Gravel Pits further indicates the industrial and extraction activities supporting the region's growth during this era.
