About this map

The Shiawassee County Courthouse stands at the heart of Corunna, marking the administrative center of a landscape defined by the winding course of the Shiawassee River. This 2023 survey illustrates the dense network of drainage and transport connecting the county seat with surrounding agricultural settlements like Vernon, Bancroft, and the smaller community of Shiawasseetown. The industrial and transit heritage of the area is visible through the Great Lakes Central RR corridors and specialized landmarks like the Millstream Airpark.

Genealogists can identify several key burial sites across the township, including Hawkins Cem, Saint Mary's Cem, and Topping Cem. The drainage patterns, such as the Maple Swamp Drain and Caledonia Drain, reveal the engineering required to manage the low-lying terrain near the Maple River. Further south, Hemingway Lake and the former mill site on Mill Rd in Newburg provide additional markers for tracing local development and family homesteads near the river's path.
