2011 Map of Macon

About this map

Agricultural lands and rural drainage networks define this part of Washtenaw County, where small crossroads settlements and historic burial grounds dot the landscape. The Saline River flows through the northeast corner, while the North Branch Macon Creek and Bear Swamp Creek weave through a grid of section-line roads. This area is anchored by the community of Macon, with its namesake Macon Cemetery, and the northern village of Benton. For those tracing local families, the map provides precise locations for six distinct cemeteries including Saint James Cemetery, Oakhill Cemetery, and Lake Ridge Cemetery. The layout of the road network, including the Ridge Hwy and Britton Hwy, reflects the early surveying patterns of the Michigan territory. The southeastern corner contains the settlement of Cone, situated near the headwaters of the Richardson Drain.
