1966 Map of Wightman

About this map

The convergence of the North Meherrin River, South Meherrin River, and Middle Meherrin River defines the landscape of southern Virginia as it appeared in the mid-1960s. The region is marked by a network of rural settlements often centered on specific family-named crossroads, such as Gregory Corner, Cox Corner, and Pettys Corner. These small communities served as the social fabric for the rural population of both Mecklenburg and Lunenburg counties. Historic infrastructure, including Reekes Mill and the aptly named Traffic Bridge, reflects a long-standing reliance on the local river system for commerce and transit.
