Here's a survey map from 1680, made by Geroge Morris and showing the town then known as Hobbs Hole, and later known as Tappahanock. This was then in the County of Rappahannock, which in 1692 split into Essex and Richmond Counties. You can see Hoskin's Creek, on which the property of my earliest Waggener ancestors, John and Rachel Waggener, was located. This map seems to be more or less looking southwest. The Waggener Plantation was on the north or what would on this map be the right side of Hoskins Creek. The initial parcel of land was purchased by John Waggener in 1668.
