1966 Map of Spotsylvania

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Fredericksburg-Spotsylvania National Military Park dominates the northwest quadrant of this landscape, preserving the hallowed ground of the Civil War. Defensive positions and harrowing landmarks of the 1864 campaign are clearly identified, including the Battle Trench and the Bloody Angle. Nearby, the Confederate Cem and the Robert E Lee Sch in Spotsylvania anchor the local community's historical identity. Beyond the preserved battlefields, the mid-1960s terrain is defined by the winding paths of the Ni River, Po River, and Mat River. Evidence of early industry and infrastructure remains at Smiths Mill and the Gayle Mill Sta (Ruins) Bridge. Small settlements like Leavells, Fraziers Gate, and Thornburg are connected by a network of rural routes including Brock Road and Old Courthouse Road, illustrating the intersection of historic preservation and modern Virginia growth.
