About this map

The Sauk River and Coldwater River converge in this Michigan landscape, anchoring a complex chain of glacial lakes that stretch northward. On the western edge of Coldwater, the terrain transitions from the city's residential grid toward the rural townships of Batavia and Lockwood. This 2011 survey captures the area's recreational and transportation identity, from the Branch County Memorial Airport to the nostalgic Capri Drive-In Theater located along the highway.

Genealogists can find several established burial grounds including Batavia Cemetery, Lockwood Cemetery, and Hurley Cemetery. The northern portion of the map is dominated by a continuous water system including Morrison Lake, Randall Lake, and North Lake, which supported seasonal tourism at sites like the Narrows Resort and Campground. Small agricultural hamlets like Batavia Center remain visible, preserving the mid-century layout of this Branch County region.
