1973 Map of Leaton
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
The Indian Reservation Boundary cuts through central Isabella County, defining a landscape shaped by petroleum extraction and heavy timber. This early 1970s topography reveals the extensive reach of the Mount Pleasant Oil Field, Rosebush Oil Field, and Vernon Oil Field, with numerous wells and a Pipeline networked across the sections. The settlement of Leaton sits at the junction of Leaton Road and the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad, while Delwin occupies a position further north along the tracks. Natural drainage is dominated by the Chippewa River and the branching Salt River system, which feed into the dense woodlands of the Chippewa River State Forest. Local history is anchored by the Bissing Cem and River Lawn Cem, serving the scattered rural townships of Denver and Isabella.
