2010 Map of Forestville

About this map

The Ahnapee River winds through the village of Forestville, where the Forestville 1885C70 Dam regulates the waters of the Forestville Flowage. This 2010 topographic record of southern Door County shows a landscape defined by traditional agricultural blocks and small crossroads settlements such as Maplewood, Carnot, and Kodan. To the east, the terrain meets the shoreline of Lake Michigan near the Woodside Cemetery, while the small Foscoro Airport sits further inland. Genealogists can identify key local burial sites including Saint Mary Cemetery and Brockhausen Cemetery. The map captures the complex drainage of the peninsula, illustrated by the convergence of Stony Creek, Bear Creek, and Silver Creek as they flow toward the lake or the river valley.
