2010 Map of Laurelville

About this map

Laurelville and Adelphi anchor the western edge of this terrain, where the foothills meet the drainages of Salt Creek and Brimstone Creek. The landscape is heavily marked by small rural cemeteries such as Old Methodist Cemetery, Bellevue Cemetery, and Friend Cemetery, reflecting generations of settlement across the ridges and hollows. Roads like Thompson Ridge Rd and Pole Ridge Rd follow the high ground, connecting small communities like South Perry and the locality of Apple. To the south, Pine Lake and its corresponding Pine Lake Dam provide a distinct water feature amidst a complex network of runs and branches, including California Branch and Little Pine Creek. The distribution of these family-named landmarks and small burial grounds suggests a long-established rural population density that has persisted through the early 21st century.
