About this map

Chippewa Lake anchors the southern edge of this landscape, a region defined by a high density of glacial kettle lakes and winding tributaries. Small rural communities like Pogy are connected by a grid of section-line roads, including 23 Mile Rd and Evergreen Rd. The area is notably dotted with smaller bodies of water such as Lake Miramichi, Pogy Lake, and Lower Big Stone Lake, many of which show developed shorelines with residential loops like Indian Trail Dr.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the township, including the Proctor Family Cemetery in the north and the Pioneer Cemetery near Pogy Creek. The western portion of the map is shaped by the Muskegon River and its feeder streams, such as Bull Kill Creek and Pollick Creek. The presence of several family and community-linked cemeteries, such as the South Evart Cemetery and Church Cemetery, provides specific points of interest for those tracing local heritage in this part of Michigan.
