About this map

Olive Center and Borculo anchor this agricultural and residential landscape in Ottawa County, where a complex network of drains and natural waterways defines the land's utility. The Pigeon River and Bass River meander through the townships, supported by an extensive system of man-made channels like the Blendon and Olive Drain and Valters Drain, which speak to the area's long history of land management for farming.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of community centers like Crisp and Rusk, each accompanied by its own local burial ground including Olive Cem and Rusk Cem. The presence of Dewind Field indicates the transition toward modern infrastructure, yet the grid-like road system, dominated by routes such as 120th Ave and Fillmore St, preserves the traditional section-line boundaries established during early settlement.
