2019 Map of Studley

About this map

The Pamunkey River carves a deep, winding boundary between King William and Hanover Counties, defining the northern landscape near Sutton Neck and Crump Neck. This region is defined by its deep ties to American history, notably through segments of the Richmond National Battlefield Park that preserve the terrain of the American Civil War. The landscape is a mix of small rural communities like Studley, Buckeye, and Pole Green, many of which developed around early transportation routes and water features. Local industrial and agricultural history is visible in features such as the Hawes Millrace and Talleys Millpond. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous local burial grounds, including the Chestnut Grove Baptist Church Cem and New Bethesda Church Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the area's long-standing families and congregations.
