2017 Map of Carr

About this map

Manistee National Forest encompasses a significant portion of this landscape where the boundaries of Mason, Lake, Oceana, and Newaygo counties meet. The area is defined by a dense network of water bodies and marshlands, notably the winding path of the Big S Br Pere Marquette River and the isolated pockets of Darkeys Marsh. Genealogists will find several key burial sites preserved here, including Carr Settlement Cem near the northern border and Colfax Cem further south. The map illustrates a rural settlement pattern where dispersed homesites are connected by a grid of numbered roads like 16 Mile Rd and 18 Mile Rd, punctuated by local landmarks such as School Section Lake and the McCumber Cem.
