2014 Map of Forestville

About this map

Forestville and White Rock occupy the edge of Lake Huron in this 2014 study of Michigan's Thumb region. The landscape is defined by the sharp boundary between the lake and the agricultural hinterland, punctuated by numerous small waterways such as White River, Mill Cr, and Slatestone Cr that drain into the basin. The survey clearly delineates the border between Huron and Sanilac counties along Huron Line Rd, with a series of family-named roads like Priemer Rd and Leppek Rd providing access to the interior farmsteads. Local history is anchored by several burial grounds including Saint Johns Cem, Forestville Cem, and White Rock Cem. Just offshore, the map identifies maritime hazards and terrain such as Wankes Reef and the shallow shelf known as The Flats, illustrating the coastal navigation challenges inherent to this stretch of the shoreline.
