2019 Map of Buckley

About this map

Monroe Center and Hilltop anchor the northern landscape of this rural Michigan quadrangle, where the boundary between Grand Traverse and Wexford counties divides the southern agricultural and lakeside terrain. Small settlements like Hannah and the village of Buckley provide clear points of reference for genealogical research, supported by the presence of local burial grounds such as Saint Mary's Cem, Downs Cem, and Monroe Center Cem. The geography is defined by a dense network of country roads, including Hilltop Rd, Red School Rd, and Davis Rd, which navigate around significant water bodies like Duck Lake and the smaller Fish Lake. The terrain rises at Pierce Hill and descends toward the southern reaches of Lake Gitchegumee, illustrating a classic glacial landscape of kettle lakes and rolling hills utilized for timber and farming.
