2023 Map of York Center

About this map

The unincorporated crossroads of Byhalia and York Center anchor this agricultural landscape in Union County, where rural life is defined by a dense network of county and township roads. The map highlights several early burial grounds, including the Byhalia Cem and York Center Cem, which serve as vital touchstones for genealogists tracing family histories in the Virginia Military District. The terrain is crisscrossed by numerous waterways, with Bokes Creek and Rush Creek carving subtle paths through the township. In the southeast, the village of Summersville sits near the Sommersville Cem, while further east, the settlement of West Jackson marks the map's border. This survey reveals a landscape of enduring small-town footprints, where rural communities have persisted alongside named landmarks like the East York Cem and Burnside Cem.
