Where: Virginia · approx. 37.82, -79.83 (vicinity only)
Why this spot: 1890s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Jackson River, headwater tributary of the James
What turns up: C&O Railway shop town in the mountains: railroad-worker, hotel, and saloon refuse with hutchinson sodas, whiskey and druggist bottles, stoneware, clay pipes, and buttons along the Jackson River and the packed valley-floor lots.
Access: Gray area.
The Jackson River bed below the ordinary low-water line is Commonwealth public-trust land where relic removal is restricted; private railroad and town lots on the Sanborn footprint need the owner's permission. State law protects archaeological sites.
