2019 Map of Russellville

About this map

Russellville and Redoak anchor this southern Ohio landscape, where the terrain transitions toward the Ohio River at the southern boundary. This 2019 survey documents a deeply dissected plateau, where prominent features like Hillman Ridge and Dixon Ridge are carved by numerous waterways including Straight Creek and Washburn Run. The settlement pattern follows the high ground of the ridges and the primary corridor of Us Rte 68, which links Stringtown to the northern villages. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for family and community landmarks such as the Devore Family Cem, Old Redoak Cem, and the Associated Reformed Churchyard. These burial sites, alongside local identifiers like Chicken Hollow and Kope Hollow, preserve the 19th-century nomenclature of the rural farmsteads that established Brown County.
