2018 Map of Chestnut
USGS Topo · Published 2018About this map
Chestnut sits at the heart of this central Illinois landscape, where the agricultural grid meets the winding course of Salt Creek. The map documents a rural transition zone where the borders of Logan, De Witt, and Macon counties converge. Local history and genealogy are anchored by numerous burial grounds scattered across the townships, including Harmony Cem to the northwest and Pleasant Valley Cem near the eastern boundary. The drainage patterns of N Fork Lake Fork and Pine Lake disrupt the geometric road system, showing the persistent influence of the natural hydrology on local land use. Researchers can trace the secondary road network, such as Old Settlers Rd and W Washington Street Rd, which connect these dispersed settlements and family farmsteads.
