1968 Map of Sebrell

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Nottoway River meanders through this portion of Southampton and Sussex counties, defining a landscape shaped by its dense swampy tributaries and rail infrastructure. In the late 1960s, the Norfolk and Western railway served as a primary east-west artery, passing through the community of Sebrell. The map reveals a dispersed settlement pattern typical of the Virginia coastal plain, marked by numerous small churches that served as local anchors, such as Hickory Hill Ch, Mill Neck Ch, and St Johns Ch. Further south, the Southampton Correctional Farm occupies a significant tract near Three Creek. The presence of several old crossings, including Peters Bridge, Westbrook Bridge, and Careys Bridge, illustrates the historical importance of the river for local transit. The topography is largely defined by low-lying wetlands like Hunting Quarter Swamp and Hornet Swamp, which are interspersed with cleared agricultural lands.
