2022 Map of Purdy

About this map

Purdy and Fields Crossroads anchor this rural landscape where the Nottoway River forms the boundary between Greensville and Sussex counties. The terrain is defined by an extensive network of swampy drainages, including Moores Swamp, Otterdam Swamp, and Harris Swamp, which feed into major waterways like Three Creek. The human history of the area is well-preserved through numerous family and congregational burial grounds, such as the Trisvan Cem, Cowie Cem, and Grace Anglican Church Cem.
