About this map

The York River dominates this Tidewater landscape, serving as a primary artery for the Steamboat Route that connected the colonial-era capital at Williamsburg and the historic county seat at Gloucester during the early twentieth century. This survey preserves a unique record of the region's long memory, documenting several sites in decay including the Church Hill Petsworth Church (Ruins), Fort Magruder Ruins, and the legendary Powhatans House Ruins near the riverbanks.
