1966 Map of Widewater

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Potomac River dominates this mid-1960s survey, separating the wooded heights of Stafford County from the Maryland shore at Mallows Bay. Along the Virginia side, the Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac railroad corridor dictates the placement of small communities like Arkendale and Widewater. This stretch of the river is defined by its dramatic points and inlets, where the deep waters of Aquia Creek meet the Potomac. Inland, the landscape retains its rural character, marked by essential local landmarks such as Mountjoy Store, Decatur Store, and Clifton Chapel.
