About this map

Dairy farming and agriculture define this landscape in Chester Township, where family-named operations like the Schirm Jersey Farm and Chestervue Farms sit alongside small crossroads communities. This area of Ohio shows a distinct settlement pattern focused on high ground between drainage basins, with New Pittsburg and Jefferson serving as central points for the surrounding rural homesteads. The terrain is marked by significant lowland features such as the Funk Bottoms to the south and the winding path of Killbuck Creek to the east.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites, including the Eight Square Cem and Blachleyville Cem, which preserve the names of early settler families. Transportation relies on a grid of local routes like W Old Lincoln Way and Lattasburg Rd, while aviation is represented by Gorman-Freeman Airport and Scheibe Field Airport. The map also captures the ecological character of the region through numerous minor waterways like Rathburn Run and Fox Run, which feed the larger creek systems.
