About this map

The Nottoway River meanders across the northern boundary of this Brunswick and Dinwiddie County landscape, marking the historic divide near Gills Bridge and Harpers Bridge. This region is defined by its deep connection to the Boydton Plank Rd corridor, which served as a vital artery for the small agrarian communities of Sturgeonville, Warfield, and Rawlings. These settlements were often anchored by local industry and transit, such as Baskerville Mill located near Jones Bridge on Hickory Run.

The landscape is intricately drained by numerous branches including Waqua Cr, Sturgeon Cr, and Opossum Quarter Cr. The mapping of small hamlets like Kress, Concord, and Ordsburg provides a clear view of the rural settlement patterns that have persisted in southern Virginia. Researchers can trace the network of secondary routes like Manson Church Rd and Lovely Zion Rd as they connect family farmsteads to the primary regional thoroughfares.
