Watershed, islands, courthouses, and some early roads are delineated. It names many towns and settlements including Jamestown, Williamsburg, Norfolk, Suffolk, Hampton, Richmond, Hanover, Fredericksburg, Elk Hill, Albemarle, and Tappahannock. The map locates Tod's Bridge, Raccoon Ford, Cape Henry, Point Comfort, and more.
