About this map

Homer sits at the southern edge of this Knox County landscape, where the North Fork Licking River joins with Goose Run and Vance Creek. The area is defined by a dense network of family-named cemeteries and rural crossroads settlements, including Bangs, Milfordton, and Five Corners. These small hubs connected the agricultural community through roads such as Johnstown Rd and Sycamore Rd.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites, from the Bird Cemetery near Dry Creek to the Simmons Cemetery and Hall Cemetery. The landscape transitions from the river bottomlands in the south toward the Knox County Airport in the east, illustrating the long-standing land use patterns of central Ohio. Other notable landmarks include Camp Anderson in the north and the Homer Post Office in the village center.
