About this map

Holmesville and Fredericksburg anchor this 2013 survey of the boundary between Wayne and Holmes Counties. The landscape is defined by the broad valley of Killbuck Creek, which flows southward through the center of the quadrangle. Several small tributaries, including Shreve Cr and Savage Run, drain the surrounding upland knobs. The map reveals a dense network of family farms and local airfields, such as Davies Air Field and Stine Field Airport, indicating the region's agricultural and light aviation character.

Genealogists and local historians can trace numerous rural burial grounds scattered across the terrain, from Trinity English Lutheran Cem in the north to Prairie Cem and Morehead Cem further south. Notable topographic features like Munson Knob and Sterrett Knob rise above the agricultural flats, while smaller settlements such as Moreland and Hard appear along the established road network of Millersburg Rd and Harrison Rd.
