About this map

Agricultural lands and rural crossroads define this 1961 survey of the Virginia Military District Between the Miamis, where the village of Vienna (South Vienna PO) sits along the historic National Road. The landscape is a network of small family settlements and burial grounds, including McConkey Cem and Bodkin Cem, reflecting generations of local residency. Further south, the Penn Central railroad cuts through Plattsburg, a key transit point for the region's produce and livestock.

Institutional development is prominent in the southeast corner near Oak Run, where the sprawling London Correctional Institution and the State Fish Hatchery occupy large tracts. Water resources like Lake Sylvan and several forks of the Little Miami River provide the backbone for the area's drainage and recreation. This edition includes 1968 photorevisions, shown in purple, which track mid-century changes to the infrastructure and built environment around Summerford and Catawba.
