About this map

Burdickville stands as the central hub of this northern Michigan landscape, situated along the southern shore of Glen Lake at the transition from the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore to the interior forests. The map illustrates a rural network of farmsteads and specialized industry, including several Gravel Pits and a Cement Plant near the eastern boundary. Civic life is well-documented through the placement of Kasson Townhall, the Glen Lake Sch, and several local gathering points such as Glen Lake Ch.

To the south, the terrain becomes increasingly dense with water bodies as the Pere Marquette State Forest begins. Significant genealogical markers are scattered throughout, from the Tobin Cem on the lake's western edge to Rose Hill Cem and Bland Cem. The inclusion of small landing strips like Coinbroke Landing Strip and the Empire Airport reflects the mid-century development of local aviation alongside traditional agricultural roads like Baatz Road and Beeman Road.
