About this map

Kingsley serves as the central hub of this Grand Traverse County landscape, situated at the junction of Kingsley Rd and Fenton Road. The settlement pattern follows a traditional grid of section lines, with many roads like Summit City Rd and Garfield Rd named for the families and destinations they once served. To the north, the community of Mayfield sits near the headwaters of Swainston Creek, while Summit City and Baxter anchor the southern reaches of the map.

Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved here, including Evergreen Cemetery, Seegmiller Cemetery, and Fowler Cemetery. The southwestern corner is dominated by the Pere Marquette State Forest, where Anderson Creek winds through the protected woodland. Historical landmarks like the Nickerson School and Kingsley Lookout Tower provide specific points of interest for local researchers tracing the early infrastructure of the region.
