I recently purchased a Confederate Map for Stafford Co., VA completed on 31 October 1864 that is quite unusual in that it has people’s names placed upon it in locations where they were located at that time. I was particularly interested in a location identified on Eugene Scheel’s map as Heflin that appears to be about 4 miles from the Fauquier Co., VA on a direct line East to Aquia, Overwharton Parish, Stafford Co., VA. On a road identified as Poplar Road that runs from Warrenton Road, South of Hartwood, on North –Northwest to the Fauquier Co., VA border I find the following Surnames: J. Heflin M. Heflin ----Kearnes Mrs. Kearney Further East I find the following Surnames: J. Heflin J. Hickerson J. Jones ------Fritter Pritenett English Mrs Butey Rudey or Radey Mrs. Butey Mrs. Turner Maddox S. Harding W. T. Patton J. M. Moore W. Honey W. Masters T. T. Fritter -----Moore F. Curtis Ludwell A. Jones B. Embrey C. Cooper Dr. Stone Mountjoy Walter These names are between what was described as Heflin (Scheel’s map) and East to Ebenezer Church and Garrisonville. These are North of Acquia Road. If anyone can identify any of these families in this area in the time frame of the Civil War I would appreciate any input. I am primarily interested in the Heflin Surname and any of the surnames that intermarried into the Heflins. There are many other names on the map and if anyone is interested in a particular name, I would be happy to look it up for you if you can give me an approximate location in Stafford where I might find the name. Regards, Phyllis.

Hi Phyllis, What a find! Do you think that M. Heflin could be Marshall Heflin? I guess without a first name listed, it would be purely conjecture, but I don't think there were a lot of Heflin's whose names began with an 'M' at that time. Thanks for sharing this with us.
