About this map

The Menominee River serves as the winding border between Marinette County, Wisconsin, and Menominee County, Michigan, defining the landscape of this 2016 survey. The small settlement of McAllister sits near the river’s edge, anchored by the Wallace McAllister Bridge which connects the two states. This rural area is characterized by a mix of agricultural plots and dense riverbottom topography, where several named islands including Long Island, Twin Island, and Maggies Island disrupt the river's flow.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the quadrangle, such as Saint Edwards Cem near Wagner and Tabor Cem further north. Local industry and transport are reflected in the grid of numbered roads like Number 12 Rd and Number 10 Rd, which lead away from the river towards established hamlets like Packard and Goll. The presence of River Park and the confluence with the Little Cedar River highlights the region's reliance on these major waterways for both geographic boundaries and community recreation.
