About this map

Gull Lake dominates the southern landscape of this 2019 survey, where its shores are lined with established residential communities like Highland Park, South Gull Lake, and Midland Park. This region on the border of Barry and Kalamazoo counties is defined by a dense concentration of glacial kettle lakes, including Crooked Lake and Indian Lake, which have shaped the local road network and settlement patterns. The village of Delton sits at the northern edge, while Richland occupies the southwest corner, showing the modern footprints of these long-standing rural centers.

Local history and genealogy interests are well-represented by several burial sites, including the Yorkville Cem, Hickory Cem, and the notable Charlotte Dewey Grave near Hickory Corners. The map also captures distinctive physical features such as The Hogback and Stony Point, which provide topographical variety among the numerous wetlands and smaller water bodies like Blackman Swamp and Grassy Lake.
