2019 Map of Whiteville

About this map

The Willis River meanders through the northwestern corner of this territory, where the rural crossroads of Whiteville and Ashby anchor the local geography. This central Virginia landscape is characterized by its numerous small burial grounds and family-named landmarks, offering significant value for genealogical research. The map documents scattered settlements like Oak Forest and Clinton, connected by a network of historic routes including Cartersville Rd and Bonbrook Creek Rd. Water features such as Flippen Lake and Fleming Lake punctuate the drainage basins of Muddy Creek and Maxey Mill Creek. The high concentration of cemeteries, from Thomas Chapel Cem to the south-lying Hendricks Cem, suggests a long-established pattern of small-scale agricultural communities and family farmsteads typical of the Piedmont region.
