About this map

The Grand River and Thornapple River converge near Ada, forming the central geography of this Kent County landscape in the late 1970s. This survey captures a period of suburban transition for the townships of Vergennes, Cascade, and Lowell, where traditional orchards and ஏராளமான Gravel Pits are interspersed with emerging residential street networks. The presence of the Covered Bridge at Ada and multiple small family or local burial grounds like Krum Cem and Wright Cem provides significant detail for genealogists and local historians. Rural infrastructure is well-documented, from the Somerville Landing Strip to the Chesapeake And Ohio River railroad line running through the river valley. Numerous neighborhood landmarks, including the Christian Sch and Thornapple Sch, anchor the settlements as they expanded along corridors like Cascade Road and Whitneyville Ave.
