2019 Map of Bellville

About this map

Bellville serves as the primary hub in this late-2010s survey, positioned along the banks of Cedar Fork where W Durbin Ave and Market St form the village core. The map highlights a deeply agricultural landscape across the Richland and Knox county line, where small settlements like Darlington, Bangorville, and Palmyra anchor a network of township roads. Genealogists will find an exceptional concentration of burial sites, from the prominent Bellville Cem to smaller family and church grounds such as Ruhl Cem, Strong Cem, and the Pleasant Grove Evangelical Cem. The southern reach of the map is defined by the headwaters of the N Br Kokosing River and the expanding waters of Knox Lake near Lake View, illustrating the transition from the rolling hills of Schweitzer Hill to the river valleys that drain the region.
