About this map

Brinkhaven and the adjacent settlement of Gann occupy a high-relief landscape where the Mohican River carves deep, winding paths through the hills of Knox County. This river system dominates the local geography, joined by smaller tributaries like East Branch Jelloway Creek and Flat Run. The terrain is characterized by prominent ridges such as Turkey Ridge and Yankee Ridge, which overlook agricultural valleys like Tager Valley.

Tracing the rural road network reveals small, established crossroads including Tiverton Center, Cavallo, and Zuck. The map provides significant genealogical value through its documentation of numerous burial grounds, such as Tiverton Cem, Hollister Cem, and Riley Cem. Industrial activity is represented by the Stone Quarry south of Cavallo, indicating the local extraction of resources within the river's bend, while the Kokosing River flows along the southern boundary of the quadrangle.
