1968 Map of Saint Joy

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The community of Saint Joy serves as a focal point for this landscape in Buckingham County, where small rural settlements are tied together by a network of winding creeks and family-named landmarks. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of the North River and its numerous tributaries, including Bishop Creek, Sawmill Creek, and Austin Creek. This 1960s survey, with updates from the 1980s, reveals a high concentration of religious and community centers that speak to the area's social fabric, such as Mount Tabor Ch, Gladstone Ch, and Antioch Ch. Many of these churches are paired with local cemeteries, providing essential data for genealogists tracing family histories in the region. The map also documents specific water features like Ragland Lake and the unusually named Brick Kiln Branch, suggesting historic land uses or small-scale industries that shaped the local economy before the late 20th century.
