About this map

The community of Ewen serves as the central hub of this Upper Peninsula landscape, situated where the South Branch Ontonagon River meanders through Matchwood Township. This 2011 survey illustrates a transition from the structured street grid of the village, anchored by the Ewen Post Office, to a more dispersed rural network defined by local family names and natural waterways. The surrounding terrain is heavily dissected by numerous drainage systems, including Cedar Creek, Mulligan Creek, and Maple Leaf Creek, which converge toward the main river channel.

Local roads such as S Fair Oaks Rd and N Cemetery Rd provide access to the outlying timber and agricultural lands. Genealogists will find interest in the location of the Ewen Cemetery on the eastern edge of town. The map also records several specific landmarks like the Airport Rd corridor and smaller tributaries such as Kostlenick Creek and Tenmile Creek, which together define the hydrological character of this Ontonagon County region.
