2016 Map of Danville

About this map

Danville and its surrounding hill country in Knox County are centered on the valley of Jelloway Cr and the waters of the Kokosing River. The landscape is a patchwork of small agricultural settlements and rural burial grounds, including the Banbury Cem and Saint Lukes Cem. To the west, the extensive waters of Apple Valley Lake dominate the geography, surrounded by a dense residential street network in Apple Valley. This modern development contrasts with the more traditional river settlements like Millwood and Monroe Mills, which sit along the lower reaches of the Kokosing. Genealogists will find interest in the numerous family and community cemeteries scattered across the townships, such as the Branstool-Critchfield-Shrimplin Cem and the Stone Quarry Chapel Cem, preserving the names of early local settlers.
