2014 Map of Hillsdale

About this map

The Saint Joseph River winds through the heart of northern Hillsdale County, connecting the bustling centers of Hillsdale and Jonesville. This modern survey illustrates the established municipal footprints and their relationship to the regional topography, where a series of interconnected water bodies such as North Sand Lake, Middle Sand Lake, and South Sand Lake define the western landscape. The presence of the N Country National Scenic Trail cutting through the center of the sheet reflects the preservation of natural corridors amidst residential and industrial growth. Local history and genealogy researchers will find several well-defined burial grounds, including the large Oak Grove Cem and Sunset View Cem, alongside the small settlement of Bankers to the south. Numerous ponds and named lakes like Winona Lake and King Lake are detailed, documenting the drainage patterns near the headwaters of several area creeks.
