About this map

Sanville and the surrounding rural communities of Henry County are defined by the winding course of the North Mayo River and its numerous tributaries. This landscape shows a transition from the elevated peaks of Hogpen Mountain in the northwest to the managed water systems of the east, featuring structures like Horse Pasture Dam Number 1c and Horse Pasture Creek Number Two Dam. The area's agricultural and industrial roots are visible in landmarks such as Kogers Mill and the scattered settlements of Stella, Blackberry, and Pannill Fork.

Genealogists can identify localized history at the Old Center Cemetery and Goodwill Cemetery, while the presence of the Blue Ridge Airport and Trent Farm Airstrip suggests the importance of aviation in this part of Virginia. From the Stones Store at the northern edge to the confluence of Mill Creek and Grays Fork in the south, the map documents a resilient rural infrastructure of county roads and family-named landmarks.
