About this map

The Appomattox River corridor defines the northern landscape of this region, anchored by the expansive waters of Lake Chesdin. This artificial reservoir is managed by the George F Brasfield Dam and supports recreational hubs like Seven Springs Marina and the Whipponock Boat Ramp. The mapping reflects a mix of suburban growth and rural heritage, where residential developments such as Chesdin Manor and Dabney Estates sit near established crossroads like Sutherland.

Genealogists will find a high density of family burial grounds scattered throughout the quadrangle, including Andrews Cemetery, Wyatt Cemetery, and the Dabney Cemetery near the southern boundary. Significant transport infrastructure is visible at the Petersburg Municipal Airport and along the corridor of Sutherland Rd. The hydrology is complex, with numerous smaller dams and ponds like Clarkes Dam and Picture Dam regulating local runs such as Hatcher Run and Gravelly Run.
