About this map

Remington and Bealeton anchor this region of Fauquier County, where the Rappahannock River winds through a landscape defined by small crossroads settlements and aviation facilities. The rural character is preserved in numerous family and community sites, such as Saint James Cemetery and Hollywood Cemetery. The area’s logistical importance is evident in the presence of both the Culpeper County Airport and Aviacres Airport, supporting local flight operations.

Smaller hamlets like Perrowville, Elkwood, and Opal are scattered along a network of country roads including Lees Mill Rd and Balls Mill Rd, which suggest a long history of water-powered industry at the river's edge. Waterways such as Tinpot Run and Marsh Run feed into the Rappahannock, while Thorn Dam indicates local water management. The map also identifies specific civic landmarks including the Bealeton Post Office and Remington Post Office, essential for genealogists locating family residences within these distinct communities.
