About this map

The Jordan River valley defines this Antrim County landscape, serving as the central corridor for both local infrastructure and regional recreation. Settlement is concentrated around the namesake hamlet of Chestonia, where the Chestonia Bridge crosses the river near the junction of several rural routes. Local history is deeply rooted in the surrounding hills, evidenced by a high density of small cemeteries including Settlement Cem, Pioneer Cem, and the Mount Bliss Cem near the prominent elevation of Mt Bliss.

In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the N Country National Scenic Trail winds through the watershed of Stevens Cr and Cascade Cr, reflecting the area's transition toward protected forest land. Higher ground to the north, such as the Rainey Hills, is marked by a network of farm-to-market roads like Alba Rd and Mount Bliss Rd. This survey preserves the locations of early religious and educational landmarks, such as Saint Johns Nepomocene church and the Rock Elm Cem, which anchor the rural community.
