1994 Map of Timberville

About this map

Little North Mountain and the high ridges of the George Washington National Forest dominate the western portion of this mid-1990s survey, illustrating the stark transition from forested slopes to the agricultural valley floor. The North Fork Shenandoah River winds through the southern landscape, serving as a focal point for settlement and early industry near the town of Timberville. This era of the valley is defined by its rural crossroads and traditional community hubs, including Moores Store, Costes Store, and Getz Corner. Local genealogy and social history are well-represented through numerous community landmarks such as St Johns Ch, Mt Olivet Ch, and Calvary Ch. The map also captures the industrial footprint of the region, noting features like a Quarry, Mine, and several sewage disposal ponds, reflecting the modernization of local infrastructure alongside historic mountain gaps like Brocks Gap.
