2017 Map of Fish Point

About this map

Saginaw Bay defines the western edge of this coastal survey, where the low-lying wetlands of Fish Point extend into the waters of Lake Huron. The landscape is a grid of agricultural drainage and rural corridors, including the Wisner Drain and the prominent W Bay City Forestville Rd. Small residential clusters and historic landmarks are scattered throughout the township, including the settlements of Thomas, Bay Park, and Oakhurst. Near the intersection of Ringle Rd and W Bay City Forestville Rd, the Hickory Highland Cem stands as a point of interest for genealogists and local historians. The map captures the transition from cultivated fields to the protected marshes of the bay, illustrating the enduring relationship between the shoreline and the inland road network defined by family names like Thomas Rd and Rogers Rd.
