The Village of Chesterhill
Tucked into the rural hills of Morgan County lies the quaint Village of Chesterhill.
About
BRIEF HISTORY
Founded by Quakers in 1834, Chesterhill was established when Ohio was still in early statehood.
A group of Quakers from Belmont County purchased 100 acres of land at one dollar each from the Ohio Company Land Office. Chesterhill’s founders saw an opportunity for a self-sufficient community in the rich farmland of Marion Township.
The Quaker faith laid the foundation for the community, with principles of peace, equality, and respect for nature remaining paramount today.
