About this map

The Petersburg National Battlefield anchors the southwestern portion of this map, preserving a landscape deeply tied to American history. To the north, the Appomattox River is dammed to form Lake Chesdin, which marks the boundary between Chesterfield and Dinwiddie counties. This 2019 survey documents a rural and suburbanizing corridor along Cox Rd, where the community of Sutherland and several small settlements like Jack and Addison are situated.

Local history and genealogy researchers will find an exceptional number of family and church burial sites scattered across the terrain, including Bland Family Cem, Dabney Cem, and the Rocky Branch Baptist Church Cem. The presence of the Dinwiddie County Airport near Burgess highlights modern infrastructure, while numerous creeks like Hatcher Run and Gravelly Run define the drainage patterns of this historically significant Virginia landscape.
