About this map

Mount Forest and Pinconning townships define the northern half of this landscape, where the Pinconning River and its various branches create a complex drainage network alongside named channels like the Johnson Drain. The southern portion is marked by the agricultural communities of Crump and Bryce, showing the organized grid of section roads and the transition from wooded tracts to cleared fields. Local social life is anchored by rural institutions such as the Garfield-Fraser Sch and several country churches including St Marys Ch and Garfield Ch.

Genealogists can locate family landmarks such as St Marys Cem and the Mount Forest Cem, while the inclusion of numerous named drainage ditches like the Erickson Drain and Selman Drain illustrates the intensive land management required for mid-century farming in Bay County. The presence of the 75 corridor cutting north-south through the eastern edge signals the arrival of the interstate era, contrasting with the established local routes like Estey Road and Pinconning Road.
