2019 Map of Welchs Creek

About this map

Brooklyn and the surrounding rural communities of Welchs Creek and Grancer define this 2019 survey of the Grayson and Butler County line. The landscape is marked by a series of prominent ridges and deep hollows, including Frog Level Ridge, Squire Ridge, and the curiosly named Haunted Hollow near Huldeville. Many local family histories are etched into the terrain through numerous small burial grounds such as Needmore Cem, Embry Cem, and Lumbstown Cem, which are often situated near historical crossroads and ridges. Notable landmarks like Buzzards Roost Bluff and the natural feature accessible via Grannys Rockhouse Rd break the wooded terrain. The drainage network is dense, featuring Welch Creek, Com Creek, and Haney Fork, illustrating the complex watershed that shaped these isolated settlements and their winding road networks like Brownsville Rd.
