1906 Map of Williamsburg

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

The York River dominates this landscape, serving as a critical transportation corridor marked by a primary Steamboat Route and numerous landings such as Miller Ldg and Tanyard Ldg. Surveyed in 1904, the topography reveals a region deeply anchored in its colonial and early American past, evidenced by several significant ruins. Researchers can identify Church Hill Petsworth Church (Ruins) and the site of Powhatans House (Ruins) near the riverbanks, alongside the remains of Fort Magruder (Ruins) further inland.
