About this map

Waterford and its surrounding agricultural valley anchor this northern Virginia landscape, showing a pattern of small settlements and family cemeteries that have persisted for generations. The terrain is defined by the ridge of Catoctin Mtn and the winding course of the Potomac River, which serves as the boundary between Loudoun and Montgomery counties. Along the river’s edge, the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park preserves the corridor of a vital nineteenth-century transport artery.

Rural crossroads such as Lucketts, Stumptown, and Paeonian Springs are mapped alongside numerous historic burial grounds, including the Waterford Cem and Catoctin Free Church Cem. To the south, the expansion of Leesburg approaches the site of Ball's Bluff National Cemetery, while the northern reaches include the hamlet of Milltown near the Catoctin Creek Bridge. This documentation captures the intersection of early Virginia settlement history with modern preservation and suburban growth.
