1949 Map of Ruther Glen

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Ruther Glen serves as a central hub in this Virginia landscape, where the Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac railroad corridor dictates the settlement pattern. The map reveals a post-war rural infrastructure defined by numerous named crossroads and family-held corners, such as Moncure Corner, Patersons Corner, and Burruss Corner. Education and faith are prominently marked through local institutions like McDuff Sch and St Pauls Ch, reflecting the community's social centers. The terrain is deeply carved by waterways like Polecat Creek and Reedy Creek, which drain toward the Mattaponi River and the North Anna River. Industry is visible at Colemans Mill Pond, while infrastructure like the Telephone Line and various bridges, including Fox Bridge, connect these isolated communities.
