1906 Map of Williamsburg

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

Williamsburg and the rural reaches of Gloucester County meet at the wide expanse of the York River in this early 20th-century topographic survey. The landscape is deeply defined by its colonial heritage, marked by the presence of multiple historic houses of worship such as Ware Church, Abingdon Church, and the Petsworth Church (Ruins). Evidence of older fortifications and estates appear throughout the tidewater terrain, including the Fort Magruder Ruins near the city and the notable Rosewell estate overlooking the river.
