About this map

Mayville serves as the central hub of this agricultural region in Tuscola County, defined by a meticulously surveyed grid of township roads and drainage systems. The landscape is marked by several community burial grounds, including West Dayton Cemetery and Dayton Center Cemetery in the north, while Saint Agatha Cemetery and Rich Cemetery anchor the central rural areas. These locations, alongside the Watertown Cemetery and Fremont Cemetery, provide critical reference points for local genealogists.

Water management is prominent throughout the terrain, with several engineered drains such as Phelps Lake Drain and Voght Drain feeding into larger natural bodies like Phelps Lake and Mawdesley Lake. To the south, the village of Fostoria sits near the headwaters of Evergreen Creek and Squaw Creek, showing the persistence of small-town centers and their associated services like the Mayville Post Office and Fostoria Post Office.
