1966 Map of Stephens City

About this map

Stephens City and the surrounding Shenandoah Valley landscape appear here in the mid-1960s, a period marked by the integration of modern infrastructure like Interchange 81 with the region's deep agricultural and industrial roots. The map reveals a complex network of early industry and community life, featuring scattered limestone operations like Quarry and Shale Pit alongside local milling history at Klines Mill and Ridings Mill. Numerous rural congregations and schools, such as Macedonia Ch and Arthel Sch, anchor the smaller crossroads of Armel and Nineveh.
