2011 Map of Maples

About this map

Licking sits at the southern edge of this landscape, serving as a primary point of navigation for the surrounding rural communities of Maples, Kimble, and Coulstone. The area is defined by its network of watercourses, including the north-flowing Little Piney Creek and Sherrill Creek, which create a complex drainage pattern across the region. Several family-named burial grounds, such as Hutchison Cemetery, Concord Cemetery, White Cemetery, and Williams Cemetery, are scattered along the rural road network, providing important markers for local genealogical research. The road system is dominated by local routes like Co Road CC, Kimble Rd, and Phelps Rd, which connect the disparate farmsteads and small settlements. The topography is further etched by smaller tributaries like Kissock Creek, Pigeon Creek, and Sample Creek, showing a terrain where land use is dictated by the proximity to these local water sources.
