1961 Map of West Mansfield

About this map

The Greenville Treaty Line bisects this agricultural landscape in the 1960s, marking a significant historical boundary that continues to influence local property lines and roads. Centered on West Mansfield, the map details a region where the New York Central railroad serves as a primary transit corridor, connecting small settlements like Horton and Walnut Grove. The terrain is defined by the drainage of Bokes Creek and Rush Creek, with the Virginia Military District's irregular land patterns evident in the southern sections. Genealogists will find a high density of small family and community burial sites, including Quaker Cem, Early Cem, and Hathaway Cem, alongside rural landmarks such as Bethel Ch and the recreational grounds of Camp Macochee.
