About this map

The Greenville area and the village of Gowen sit at the center of this 2014 survey, where the winding Flat River defines the local drainage. This portion of the Michigan landscape is characterized by a high density of water bodies, ranging from the large Wabasis Lake in the southwest to clusters including Woodbeck Lake, Ziegenfuss Lake, and Lincoln Lake. The map details the rural infrastructure connecting Kent and Montcalm counties, showing a transition from the structured residential streets of the city to the expansive township grids defined by roads like 14 Mile Rd NE and Wise Rd.

Genealogists will find a wealth of local burial sites, such as the Forest Home Cem, Saint Charles Cem, and Eureka Cem near the city center, as well as the more remote Monroe Roads Cem and Wolverton Plains Cem. Aviation history is represented by the Greenville Municipal Airport, while the hydrography of Wabasis Creek and its many tributaries, including Clear Creek and Coopers Cr, illustrates the watery geography of the region.
