2016 Map of Parmleysville

About this map

Parmleysville and the surrounding plateau of southern Wayne County appear here in a landscape defined by deep drainages and family legacies. The Little S Fork and Beaver Cr have carved numerous hollows, such as Criswell Hollow and Stillhouse Hollow, creating a complex topography of ridges like Ball Ridge and prominent sandstone features including Coopers Cliff and Rattlesnake Cliff. These natural barriers dictated the settlement patterns of the 21st century, where small communities like Burfield and Mount Pisgah remain connected by winding routes such as Patton Creek Rd. The map is particularly notable for its density of family burial sites, including the Lewis Coffey Family Cem, Hucaby-Eaton Cem, and Gregory-Corder Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research. Much of the southern portion of the area is protected as part of the Daniel Boone National Forest.
