About this map

Kibesillah and Newport anchor this coastal stretch of Mendocino County, where the terrestrial landscape meets the Pacific Ocean along a series of dramatic bluffs and gulches. The settlement pattern is defined by small coastal clusters and family-named landmarks like Bell Mountain and Kibesillah Hill. The map provides significant genealogical value through the identification of the Newport Cemetery and Inglenook Cemetery, alongside the local Grange Hall.

Waterways such as Chadbourne Gulch and Abalobadiah Creek drain the upland terrain toward the shore, leading to features like Bruhel Point and Kibesillah Rock. To the south, the landscape shifts into the expansive Sand Dunes of MacKerricher State Park and the freshwater Sandhill Lake. The influence of the logging industry is visible in the naming of Camp 1 Ten Mile Road near the mouth of the Ten Mile River.
