2016 Map of Dumont

About this map

Dumont and the smaller settlement of Collis anchor this agricultural landscape in Traverse County, defined by a rigid grid of section roads and drainage improvements. The geography is shaped by the West Branch Twelvemile Creek, which meanders southward toward Collis, where it is also labeled as W Br Twelvemile Cr. This drainage network is supplemented by engineered waterways like County Ditch Number Fifteen, reflecting the region's managed water systems. For those researching local history, the Saint Patrick Cem stands as a significant landmark east of Collis, serving as a primary site for genealogical study in this sparsely populated township. The area remains dominated by large-scale farming, with the road network including Co Hwy 4 and Co Hwy 9 facilitating transit through the township lines.
