2019 Map of Ahmeek

About this map

The Keweenaw National Historical Park anchors the southern portion of this map, preserving the industrial legacy of Michigan's Copper Country. A dense network of mining-era settlements, including Ahmeek, Bumbletown, Centennial, and Wolverine, follows the mineral-rich geological ridge. This 2019 survey shows the transition from these high-density residential hubs to the forested shoreline of Lake Superior at Sevenmile Point. The map provides significant detail for genealogists, with three distinct burial grounds—Ahmeek Cem, Lakeview Cem, and Schoolcraft Cem—located near the historical village centers. Inland, the Keweenaw State Trail follows old rail corridors through Copper City and Kearsarge, while the Gratiot River flows through the northern woodlands toward the lake.
