About this map

The South Anna River winds through the borderlands of Louisa County and Goochland County, defining a rural Virginia landscape during the mid-1940s. The region is characterized by small post offices and community hubs such as Southanna P O and the crossroad settlement of Gum Spring. This era of development is marked by local industry and infrastructure, notably the Bushee & Son Mill and the Jackson Memorial School, which served the surrounding families. The map also records early geodetic markers like the USC&GS LO Tower 1941, reflecting the surveying efforts of the War Department and Army Corps of Engineers. Natural drainages like Big Lickinghole Creek and Deep Creek carve through the terrain, connecting disparate hamlets like East Leake and Othma within a traditional Piedmont agricultural network.
