2012 Map of Montague

About this map

The White River and its confluence with White Lake dominate this 2012 survey of the Muskegon County shoreline. The residential and commercial development of South Whitehall and Maple Grove follows the water's edge, highlighting the area's transition from an industrial river-and-rail past to a modern recreation-focused landscape. Inland, the map reveals a network of water bodies including Owasippe Lake, Austin Lake, and Silver Creek Pond, alongside facilities like Ottiger Airport and the Hickory Knoll Golf Course. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several local burial grounds, including the Old Sprague Cem, Mount Calvary Cem, and Sammis Cem. The presence of the Montague Marina and multiple campsites like Trailway Campground emphasizes the importance of the waterfront to the local economy and seasonal residents during this era.
