About this map

Belleville Lake and the winding Huron River define the southern Wayne County landscape, where the city of Belleville is joined by the outlying areas of Belleville North and Roulo. The settlement pattern follows the river's path, with French Landing marking a historical point of interest along the water's edge. To the south, the grid of farm roads reveals smaller, rural centers such as Martinsville and New Boston, each anchored by local landmarks.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds across this quadrangle, including the Romulus Memorial Cem near the city of Romulus and the Saint Stephen Cem farther south. The eastern edge of the map is dominated by the sprawling infrastructure of the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, contrasting with the numerous agricultural drainage features like Strong Drain and Bunton Drain that lattice the surrounding townships.
