"It connected Scottsville on the James with Staunton in the Shenandoah Valley." I didn't know that. Thanks for posting. I've been to Scottsville several times. Very beautiful area along the river and going east where the land levels off. Like a hidden valley.
We have an old stage depot near me on Rt. 40 a few miles west of Brookneal. It's the oldest building in our county. Privately owned also. So it's not marked as such. Can only imagine what things looked like then.
I live just a few miles from the banks of the staunton river on the south side. The old ferry is a land mark there. That's where crops were taken across to be hauled to Lynchburg. Up stream a few miles or so is what's left of the bridge that our southern boys burned on their march from Appomattox heading to Franklin co. to hunker down in the mountains to continue to fight. They didn't get word of the surrender until they had burned the bridge. Folks canoeing see those rock pillows and have no idea how old they are and the history. I saw a picture of that bridge in a family bible taken before it was burned. After it burned the ferry was back running soon.
