About this map

The Kalamazoo River and its expansive Ottawa Marsh dominate the southern reaches of this landscape, where the small settlement of New Richmond sits near the river's edge. This 2019 survey documents the intricate water network of southern Ottawa and northern Allegan Counties, characterized by the winding Rabbit River and several artificial drainage systems like Jaarda Drain.

Rural life is anchored by a series of long-standing communities and their associated burial grounds, including Overisel, Fillmore, and East Saugatuck. Genealogists will find several notable sites for research, such as the Old Overisel Cem and Manlius Cem. To the north, the periphery of Holland is represented by the West Michigan Regional Airport and a dense grid of county roads, showing the transition from municipal infrastructure to the agricultural Pine Plains.
