1963 Map of Purdy

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Nottoway River forms a winding natural boundary between Sussex and Greensville Counties, anchoring a landscape of extensive swamp systems and agricultural settlements. This 1963 survey, updated in the 1980s, reveals a rural economy organized around the Norfolk and Western railway, which passes through the village of Purdy. The area is characterized by several small crossroads communities such as Fields Crossroads and Cowie Corner, which served as local hubs for the surrounding farmsteads.
