About this map

The coastline of Lake Huron defines the eastern edge of this Michigan survey, where residential developments like Lexington Heights, Huronia Heights, and Birch Beach cluster along the shore. Inland, the landscape transitions into the agricultural townships of Worth, Grant, and Burtchville. These rural sections are gridded by long township line roads, such as Galbraith Line Road and Mortimer Line Road, which connect small crossroads communities like Jeddo and Amadore.

Genealogists and local historians can find numerous small burial grounds and landmarks preserved in the early 1960s terrain, including St Lawrence Cem, Bethel Ch, and the Cook Sch. The western boundary is marked by the winding course of the Black River and the protected lands of the Port Huron State Game Area. To the south, the established recreation grounds of Lakeport State Park and Lake Huron Camp signal the area's significance as a mid-century lakeside retreat.
