2019 Map of Woodford

About this map

Mattaponi River headwaters converge in this portion of Caroline County, where the Matta River, Poni River, and Motto River shape a landscape defined by extensive wetlands. Settlements like Woodford, Welchs, and Milford are linked by a network of rural roads such as the Fredericksburg Tpke and Ladysmith Rd. The presence of Woodford Airpark near the center of the sheet reflects the modern transportation infrastructure alongside older community landmarks. For genealogists, the map preserves the location of Bethel Cem and the small Wright's Burying Ground Cem. The terrain is punctuated by water features including Old Grays Millpond, Reedy Swamp, and Hobby Swamp, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns that have dictated local land use and development for generations.
