1964 Map of Wilton

About this map

The Tidewater region of Middlesex and Gloucester counties is defined by the massive estuary systems of the Rappahannock River and the Piankatank River. This mid-century landscape reflects a maritime economy in transition, where traditional river landings like Stampers Wharf and Blands Wharf sit alongside modern developments such as Piankatank Shores. Notable inland landmarks include the Old Brick Ch and Wilton Sch, which served as community anchors for rural settlements like Syringa and Hartfield.
