Text box and red circles were added by TwoScarsUp based on information in the book Lee's Endangered Left by Richard R. Duncan and map on page 72 of the ASV Quarterly Bulletin Vol. 74 No.2. Because this map was originally created in 1862, it does not show Bland County—which was created in 1861 from portions of Wythe, Tazewell, and Giles counties.
