1966 Map of Providence Forge

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Providence Forge serves as a central hub on this 1960s landscape, situated where the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad crosses the winding Chickahominy River. The river forms the primary boundary between New Kent and Charles City counties, its course defined by wide tidal marshes and distinct landings like Holly Landing and Oldhouse Landing. The interior topography is a network of ridges and drainage basins, including Potato Run and Collins Run, which separate small agricultural and timber-linked settlements. Local landmarks such as Adkins Store and Roaches Corner indicate the dispersed nature of community life during this era. The map also documents numerous spiritual and memorial sites essential for genealogical research, ranging from Emmaus Ch in the north to Little Elam Ch and the Menoah Cem near the southern boundary.
