1969 Map of Ruther Glen

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Ruther Glen and Carmel Church anchor this 1960s landscape, which centers on the busy corridor of the Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac railroad. A preserved Civil War Fort near Fox Bridge along the North Anna River provides a tangible link to the area's 19th-century military history, while an Old Railroad Grade north of Chandler Crossing marks an earlier transportation alignment. The map reflects a rural economy defined by water and crossroads, from the extensive swamp systems like Rafe Swamp and Millpond Swamp to small communities like Signboard, Bagdad, and McBryant Corner. Prominent religious and community landmarks such as St Margarets Ch and Jericho Ch are visible alongside water features like Colemans Millpond and Lake De Jarnette. The terrain is characterized by numerous small runs and creeks, including Polecat Creek and Reedy Creek, flowing toward the Mattaponi River in the northeast.
