About this map

The Belle River winds through the heart of this landscape, marking the boundary between St Clair Co and Macomb Co. At the southern edge, the village of Memphis serves as a local hub, characterized by a grid of streets and key landmarks such as the Memphis Cem and All Saints Ch. The surrounding countryside is defined by agricultural fields and a dense network of water management features, including the Tallmadge Drain, Bordman Drain, and Sumner Drain.

Evidence of small-scale aviation is scattered across the township, with private runways like Sharpes Landing Strip, Sawickis Landing Strip, and Gores Landing Strip appearing amidst the farms. To the north, the small settlement of Emmett is situated near the South Branch Pine River, while the crossroads of Riley Center anchors the central portion of the map. Local genealogy is supported by the presence of institutions like the Farrell Sch and Mt Carmel Ch.
