About this map

Leaton and Wise anchor this township-level survey of Isabella County, where the regular grid of section-line roads meets the meandering paths of the North Branch Salt River and South Branch Salt River. The landscape reflects a mix of agricultural heritage and industrial extraction, most notably marked by the Rosebush Oil Field in the northwest corner near Bissing Cemetery. The rural character is punctuated by several small communities, including Delwin and Jordan, which serve as quiet hubs along the thoroughfares of N Shepherd Rd and E Beal City Rd.

Transport and recreation are represented by the D J Airport and the Pohlcat Golf Course, the latter situated along the banks of the Chippewa River as it cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle. For those studying local genealogy or land use, the map documents established landmarks like the River Lawn Cemetery and the precise layout of the county's drainage network, including Jordon Creek and Spring Creek.
