2011 Map of Edwards

About this map

Edwards sits at the heart of this landscape, where the Middle Branch Tittabawassee River and several of its tributaries, including Mansfield Creek and Chatman Creek, define the drainage of Ogemaw County. The settlement pattern is largely defined by small lakes and watercourses, with the Edwards Cemetery serving as a central point for local genealogy. The map shows a clear division between the more developed southern clusters near Indian Lake and Elk Lake and the northern reaches leading toward Tolfee Hill. The topography is marked by numerous natural basins, creating a patchwork of small bodies of water such as Tee Lake, Gear Lake, and Frost Lake. Local thoroughfares like Diebold Ranch Rd and Edwards School Rd provide the framework for rural life in this Michigan township during the early 21st century.
