About this map

Millersburg serves as the focal point of this Holmes County survey, situated at the confluence of several waterway drainage systems including Killbuck Creek, Honey Run, and Sapps Run. The town's infrastructure in the early 1960s is meticulously documented, showing the Conrail rail line, a Radio Tower, and the local Holmes County Airport. The surrounding landscape is defined by the broad Prairie and a network of rural landmarks such as the County Home and Locust Grove Ch.

A notable historical boundary, the Greenville Treaty Line, bisects the northern terrain, marking an important frontier-era demarcation. The map also records the region's diverse small-scale industry and land use, from numerous Strip Mine sites and Gas Well locations to the Gorrell Cem and Oak Grove Cem, providing a detailed record for genealogists and local historians studying the settlement patterns of Hardy and Mechanic townships.
