2023 Map of Mercerville

About this map

Mercerville sits as a primary settlement within this section of Gallia County, located near the southern reaches of the Wayne National Forest. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of narrow valleys carved by Bullskin Creek, Johns Creek, and Indian Guyan Creek, which dictate the placement of local roads and family homesteads. This map is particularly dense with genealogical sites, recording numerous small burial grounds such as Macedonia Cem, Loucks Cem, and Providence Cem that speak to generations of rural settlement. The county line between Lawrence Co and Gallia Co runs through the southwest, where the terrain becomes increasingly complex near Turkey Creek. Significant community landmarks include the Lincoln Ridge Chapel Cem and Stewart Chapel Cem, which anchor the upland ridges between the many winding runs and branches.
