1983 Map of Bellefontaine

About this map

Slate Spring and the surrounding Webster and Calhoun County hill country are defined by a network of rural churches and family cemeteries in this early 1980s study. The landscape is bisected by the Old Indian Treaty Boundary, a significant historical line marking earlier land divisions that still influenced property and jurisdictional boundaries into the modern era. Small community hubs like Bellefontaine and Embry serve as focal points for local navigation, connected by roads that wind past landmarks such as Dorroh Lake Chapel and North Union Ch. The drainage patterns are dominated by the Sabougla Creek Canal (Left) and Shutispear Creek, illustrating the management of the region's water resources. Genealogists will find particular value in the numerous burial sites identified, including Zion Cem, Vance Cem, and Quinn Cem.
