1949 Map of Saluda

About this map

Saluda serves as the focal point of this Tidewater landscape, situated between the tidal reaches of the Rappahannock River and the Piankatank River. In the late 1940s, the region was defined by a network of small agricultural and maritime settlements such as Stormont, Harcum, and Locust Hill. The map reveals a community deeply rooted in its local institutions, evidenced by the Middlesex Co Training School, Saluda High School, and historic religious sites like the Christ Church (PO) and Immanuel Church.
