About this map

Stanardsville serves as the focal point for this Greene County landscape, situated where the South River and Blue Run drain the foothills of the Blue Ridge. The 2010 geography reveals a mix of historic rural settlements like Kinderhook, Lydia, and Quinque alongside modern developments. Significant water management features are evident through numerous small reservoirs such as Green Mountain Lake, Lake Skyline, and Lake Shenandoah, which are held by structures like the Twin Lakes Dam Number One.

For genealogists and local historians, the distribution of burial grounds across the ridges is particularly notable. From the Stanardsville Public Cemetery in town to more isolated sites like the McMullen Cemetery, Shiloh Cemetery, and Dundee Cemetery, the map preserves the names of established families and early crossroads. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations including Turkey Ridge, Teel Mountain, and Goodall Mountain, while the northern reaches are bounded by the Conway River and Rapidan River.
