About this map

White Lake and the White River dominate this coastal landscape, forming the centerpiece for the neighboring communities of Whitehall and Montague. The map shows a well-established grid of residential streets and industrial zones, particularly around South Whitehall and the White Lake shoreline. The area is characterized by numerous inland water bodies, including Owasippe Lake, Austin Lake, and Schneider Lake, which reflect the region's glacial history and its long-standing role as a center for recreation and summer camps.

Genealogists and local historians can find significant landmarks scattered across the township lines of t12n r17w and t11n r17w. Multiple burial grounds, such as Oakhurst Cem, Mount Calvary Cem, and the Old Sprague Cem, are clearly marked, providing precise locations for family research. To the north, the village of Rothbury sits near the county line, while the southern reach includes the community of Lakewood Club, illustrating the dense pocket of settlements that emerged around the river's mouth and the surrounding pine-rich lowlands.
