About this map

The Huron River and Mill Creek drainage basins define the rural and suburban character of this Washtenaw County landscape. In the northeastern corner, the village of Dexter serves as a focal point where several rail and road routes converge near the riverbanks. The map documents a high density of historical burial sites, including Saint Joseph Cem, Parker Cem, and Phelps Cem, which provide significant points of interest for genealogical research in the area between Chelsea and Lima Center.

Glacial topography is evident through numerous water bodies like Fourmile Lake and Nordman Lake, alongside prominent rises such as Prospect Hill. To the south, the small settlement of Jerusalem sits near the winding Mill Cr. The layout of the land is further marked by religious and community landmarks, most notably the Salem Lutheran Church and its associated Salem Lutheran Church Cem at the southern edge of the survey area.
