About this map

The Appomattox River carves the northern border of this landscape, separating Dinwiddie and Chesterfield counties. Just south of the water, the Norfolk and Western RR facilitates the growth of rural communities like Sutherland and Jack. This mid-century survey captures a mix of established agricultural life and modern infrastructure, including the Petersburg Municipal Airport and the expansive Fort Lee Recreation Area surrounding Jordon Lake. Numerous small family cemeteries, such as Wyatt Cem and Olgers Cem, are scattered across the terrain near Hatcher Run and Gravelly Run, providing valuable data for genealogists tracing local lineages. The presence of the Seaboard Air Line RR through Burgess further emphasizes the importance of rail transit in connecting these wooded uplands to the larger Virginia economy.
