About this map

Strawberry Lake and the Huron River system anchor this landscape in the early twenty-first century, revealing a region defined by its glacial hydrology. The community of Hamburg sits at the heart of a dense network of water bodies, including Zukey Lake, Ore Lake, and Winans Lake. These lakes are joined by smaller creeks like Arms Creek and South Ore Creek, illustrating how the natural topography has shaped the residential and recreational patterns of Livingston County.

Local history and genealogy are preserved in several distinct burial grounds, such as Hamburg Village Cemetery and the North Hamburg Cemetery near Pettysville. The presence of small aviation sites like Cackleberry Airport and Gooding Airport suggests a specialized land use alongside the more traditional residential clusters at Lakeland and Whitmore Lake. The map details a transition from the lakeside settlements to the open fields surrounding Webster, where the terrain begins to flatten away from the primary river chains.
