About this map

Woodville and surrounding communities in Rappahannock County appear here at the intersection of rural agriculture and the rolling foothills of the Blue Ridge. The landscape is defined by its numerous family burial grounds and small hamlets, such as Slate Mills and Peola Mills, which were historically anchored by river-powered industry. The meeting point of three counties—Rappahannock, Madison, and Culpeper—is marked by the courses of the Hughes River and Hazel River.

Genealogists will find a dense concentration of family-named landmarks and cemeteries, including the Hitt Family Graveyard, Kibler Clark Cem, and Menefee Family Cem. The ecclesiastical history of the area is represented by Saint Paul's Episcopal Churchyard in the north and the Nazareth Baptist Church Cem near Boston. Prominent peaks like Slaughter Mtn, Fielding Mtn, and Bessie Bell Mtn overlook a network of country roads such as Sperryville Pike and Hawlin Rd, tracing the early travel patterns of this Piedmont region.
