1994 Map of Woodville

About this map

Woodville and its surrounding rural hamlets are centered in a landscape of prominent peaks and river bottoms at the boundary of Rappahannock and Culpeper counties. This 1990s survey, grounded in 1959 imagery and verified for modern boundaries, shows the enduring settlement pattern of Virginia's Piedmont. The drainage of the Hazel River and Hughes River dictates the placement of crossroads like Slate Mills and Peola Mills, while numerous family-named peaks such as Slaughter Mtn, Fielding Mtn, and Rosser Mtn rise above the agricultural valley. Genealogists can trace localized landmarks and spiritual centers like Piedmont Ch and Mt Lebanon Ch, while more obscure locations like Hawlin and Scrabble appear alongside the upland ridges of Bessie Bell Mountain and Red Oak Mountain.
