About this map

Bronson anchors the southern edge of this Branch County landscape, where the agricultural plains are punctuated by a significant chain of glacial lakes and winding waterways. The central feature, Matteson Lake, serves as a focal point for the settlement of Matteson, surrounded by a network of rural roads such as W Colon Rd and N Matteson Lake Rd. This 2014 survey reveals a well-established land division system, with township and range lines like t6s r8w and t5s r7w framing the terrain.

To the north, the village of Sherwood sits near the headwaters of Riley Cr, while the southeastern corner is defined by a cluster of smaller water bodies including Dorsey Lake, Bassett Lake, and Sprong Lake. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies specific burial sites such as Matteson Cem and York Cem, alongside family-named thoroughfares like Arbogast Rd and Farrand Rd that trace the historical development of these farming communities.
