About this map

The U S Marine Corps Reservation dominates the northern reaches of this map, reflecting the significant military presence in the area during the mid-1940s. Centered around the historic crossroads of Stafford, the landscape is a network of rural settlements like Garrisonville, Sheltons Shop, and Ramoth. The transportation corridor is anchored by the Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac railroad and the Jefferson Davis Highway, which facilitate movement between the wooded hills and the coastal plains. Significant local landmarks include numerous country churches such as Aquia Ch and Locust Grove Ch, along with the Stafford Training Sch. This map documents a transitional period for the county, where traditional community centers like Toluca and Moores Corner sit adjacent to the growing infrastructure of the Shirley Highway.
