2023 Map of Cass City

About this map

Cass City serves as the primary hub of this agricultural landscape in the Thumb region of Michigan, where a complex network of engineered waterways supports the fertile plains. The confluence of the North Branch Cass River and South Branch Cass River highlights the natural drainage of the area, while dozens of named features like the Tuckey Drain and Wait Drain reflect the intensive land management required for local farming. To the south, the smaller settlement of Deford marks a crossroads near the North Branch White Creek. Genealogists and local historians can locate long-standing community landmarks such as the Elkland Township Cem on the outskirts of the main village and the Novesta Church Cem further south. The map provides a precise look at the township's layout, from the grid-like residential streets of Cass City, including Huron St and Garfield Ave, to the sprawling rural sections defined by family-named roads like Schwegler Rd and Dodge Rd.
