About this map

Mancelona serves as the primary hub of this northern Michigan landscape, where the street grid converges at the intersection of local and state routes near Johnson Pond. The settlement pattern extends south to Antrim and north toward the smaller communities of Wetzel and Green River. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is particularly useful for locating burial sites, including Fairview Cem, Saint Anthony Cem, and Bryden Cem further to the northwest.

The physical geography is defined by the winding course of the Cedar River and its various branches, including the North Branch Cedar River and Woolcott Creek. Prominent landmarks such as Mount Bundy rise above the terrain, while the North Country National Scenic Trl snakes through the eastern hills. This modern survey also documents transportation and infrastructure, from the Mancelona Municipal Airport to a network of county highways and forest roads that facilitate access to the surrounding lakes and timberlands.
