About this map

The Dan River and its numerous tributaries, including the Little Dan River and Browns Dan River, carve through the landscape of the Virginia-North Carolina borderlands. This 2022 survey captures a rural terrain defined by small family cemeteries and remote country churches, such as the Creaseys Chapel United Methodist Church and the Five Forks Wesleyan Church. The presence of the Heavenly Acres Airport provides a distinct modern landmark amidst the traditional network of mountain roads like Carter Mtn Rd and Russell Creek Rd. Genealogists may find value in the location of the Beasley Cem and Wayside Cem, which reflect the long-standing settlement patterns of Patrick and Stokes counties. The intricate drainage network, including Peters Cr and Little Russell Cr, highlights the region's historical reliance on these waterways for early land division.
