About this map

Chesterhill and Bartlett anchor this southeastern Ohio landscape, where deep-rooted Quaker heritage is evidenced by numerous burial grounds including the Old Quaker Cemetery and Bartlett Friends Cemetery. The terrain is defined by the branching networks of West Branch Wolf Creek and the West Branch Little Hocking River, which carve through the ridges and valleys of Morgan and Washington counties. Settlement patterns follow these natural drainages and the winding paths of Tabor Ridge Rd and Buckeye Ridge Rd.

Genealogists will find a high density of small family and community burial sites such as the Mission Cemetery, Wilson Cemetery, and Liberty Cemetery. Historically significant infrastructure appears in the form of rural crossings like Shinn Bridge and Henry Bridge, while local commerce remains centered at the Chesterhill Post Office. Small hamlets such as Dale and Patten Mills illustrate the era's persistent rural structure along the banks of Walnut Run and Laurel Run.
