2019 Map of Schuyler

About this map

The Rockfish River winds through the heart of the Blue Ridge foothills on the border of Albemarle and Nelson counties, shaping the development of settlements like Schuyler and Faber. This 2019 survey documents a landscape defined by significant elevations, including Appleberry Mtn and Shiloh Mtn, which separate the various drainage basins of Green Cr and Hickory Cr. Historically rooted communities are evidenced by numerous local burial grounds such as Rock Spring Cem and Mount Shiloh Cem. The inclusion of Faber Airport and names like Old Dominion and Damon reflects the long-standing infrastructure and crossroads that have served this rural Virginia corridor. Researchers can trace the network of secondary routes, including the Monacan Trail Rd and Irish Rd, as they navigate the ridges and hollows that characterize this part of the Piedmont.
