About this map

Sturgeonville and the neighboring community of Warfield occupy the southern reaches of this landscape, situated near the headwaters of Sturgeon Creek. The terrain is defined by a dense network of streams and creeks feeding into the Nottoway River, which forms the boundary between Dinwiddie and Brunswick counties. Historically significant crossing points like Gills Bridge, Harpers Bridge, and Jones Bridge demonstrate the long-established transit patterns across the river, connecting isolated settlements like Ordsburg and Hickory Run.

The local economy and geography are further detailed through landmarks such as Baskerville Mill on Reedy Creek and several small rural centers including Rawlings, Concord, and Kress. These pockets of development are linked by historic thoroughfares like the Boydton Plank Road, a vital artery through this part of Virginia. The map's detail provides a clear look at the relationship between these early 21st-century communities and the numerous waterways, such as Waqua Creek and Great Branch, that shaped the region's agricultural and industrial layout.
