Blissfield and the neighboring settlement of Riga anchor this detailed study of the border between Lenawee and Monroe counties. The River Raisin meanders through the northwest, creating a distinctive landscape of oxbows and bends that contrast with the rigid grid of rural roads and drainage channels. This modern survey illustrates the complex water management system essential to the region's agricultural productivity, including the Floodwood Cr, Kellar Drain, and Burton and White Drain. For those researching family history, the map precisely locates several community focal points such as Crane Cem, Logan Cem, and Pleasant View Cem. The presence of the Betz Airport and a dense network of local routes like S Blissfield Pwy and Payne Hwy reflect the area's continued role as a vital transportation corridor in southeastern Michigan.
