2014 Map of Flushing

About this map

The Flint River meanders through the heart of Flushing, serving as the primary geographic anchor for this portion of Genesee County. The landscape is defined by an extensive drainage network, including the Cattail Swamp Drain, Monroe Brook, and Pollock Brook, which historically supported the agricultural development of the region. Aviation history is noted by the presence of both Cedarville Airport and Dalton Airport, while a small northern section of the Manistee National Forest appears in the northwest. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds, ranging from the central Flushing Cem to outlying sites like Cronk Cem and Bendle Cem. The map illustrates a transition between suburban expansion and the rural heritage of the surrounding townships, with well-established roads like W Mt Morris Rd and Corunna Rd framing the settled areas.
