About this map

The Rappahannock River and North Anna River define the hydraulic character of this late 19th-century Virginia landscape, where industrial extraction and agrarian commerce met. The map documents the operations of the Vaucluse Gold Mine and White Hall Gold Mine, highlighting the region's mineral interests during this era. Transportation is anchored by the Virginia Midland Railroad in the northwest and a Narrow Gauge Railroad cutting through the center, connecting established hubs like Spottsylvania and Chancellorsville.
