[MAP] HAND-DRAWN MAP OF FARMVILLE. TAKEN FROM GRAY’S 1878 ATLAS OF VIRGINIA. JUDITH RANDOLPH SURVEY.

A hand-drawn map of Farmville, lettered at the top “GRAYS NEW MAP OF | FARMVILLE | PRINCE EDWARD CO VA | SPECIAL SURVEYS | 1878”. A plat of the principal streets, from the Appomattox River to Appomattox Street to Grosse’s Branch. Clearly delineating the AM&O RR line. Across the plat is written “Judith Randolph Survey,” which the Prince Edward County Historical Society used to place bronze markers at the four corners of the town. Also worth mention is the dreadful scandal surrounding Mrs. Randolph, whose husband and sister were tried but narrowly acquitted for the murder of their illegitimate child.
