1984 Map of Sampsel

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Grand River meanders across the southern landscape of this Livingston County region, flanked by an extensive system of levee structures designed to manage the flood-prone bottomlands. This 1980s landscape shows the transition from the upland bluffs near Springhill down to the alluvial plains where Polecat Creek and Indian Creek join the main river system. The settlement pattern is defined by small clusters like Sampsel and Mooresville, which serve as anchors for the surrounding rural territory. North of the river, the terrain is deeply dissected by numerous waterways including Bachelor Branch and the interestingly named Penitentiary Branch. The presence of several unlabeled Cem sites and a prominent Quarry near the northern boundary suggests a long-standing local economy tied to both the land and its resources, while Shale Hill rises near Utica in the southeast corner.
