About this map

The northern reaches of the Albion vicinity and the rural landscapes of Jackson and Calhoun counties are defined by a network of agricultural roads and low-lying wetlands. In this modern survey, the village of Springport stands as the primary northern settlement, surrounded by historical burial grounds such as Springport Cem and the nearby King Cem. The terrain is shaped by the wandering paths of North Branch Rice Creek and South Branch Rice Creek, which feed into numerous small marshy basins and natural features like White Lake and the Cistern Lakes.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and small-scale cemeteries, including Reed Family Cem and Quakertown Cem, which anchor the legacy of the area's early farmsteads. The southern edge of the map transitions into the expanding residential and industrial corridors of Albion, where the landscape is bisected by major transit arteries and the headwaters of the regional creek system.
