2019 Map of Holmesville

About this map

Killbuck Creek and its associated Killbuck Swamp dominate the low-lying central corridor of this landscape, creating a distinct natural boundary between the uplands of Wayne and Holmes Counties. The village of Holmesville anchors the southern portion of the map at a junction of rail and road, while the settlements of Moreland and Fredericksburg define the northern and eastern reaches. This area is characterized by a high density of small burial grounds, including the Trinity English Lutheran Cem and several family or community plots like Herman Cem and Moreland Cem, which provide significant points of interest for genealogical research. Higher elevations are marked by notable rises such as Munson Knob and Sterrett Knob, while specialized infrastructure like Davies Air Field and Stine Field are scattered across the rural acreage, reflecting the modern agricultural and light aviation character of the region.
