About this map

The confluence of the Thompson River and the Grand River anchors the southern landscape of this mid-1980s survey, where an extensive system of Levee protections lines the riverbanks and surrounding lowlands. The city of Chillicothe serves as the regional hub, exhibiting a developed grid that includes the Po, City Hall, and a central Hospital. The surrounding terrain is divided into distinct sections such as Jackson, Rich Hill, and Green, indicating local jurisdictional or historical boundaries.

Infrastructure beyond the city center highlights late 20th-century life in Livingston County, featuring a Drive-In Theater and a Golf Course to the north, while the Radio Tower (KCHI) stands near the southern river bottom. Significant drainage and water management are evident through numerous labeled features like Coon Creek, Muddy Creek, and Blackwell Br, which intersect the agricultural fields and floodplains. Researchers can also locate various Ch and Cem markers scattered across the rural township sections.
