About this map

The Grand River snakes through this rural landscape at the meeting point of Ingham, Eaton, and Jackson counties. This 2017 study illustrates the persistent agricultural and riparian character of the region, anchored by the settlements of Onondaga and Kinneville. The town of Onondaga sits near the river's bend, where Old Plank Rd and Oak St converge, while Kinneville occupies a position further north along Kinneville Rd.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across these townships, including Onondaga Cem, Lane Cem, and Pope Cem. The terrain is marked by numerous water bodies and drainage systems that have shaped local farming for generations, such as Fuller Lake in the west and Sandstone Creek to the southeast. These features, along with the Kettler and Norris Drain, emphasize the ongoing importance of water management in this part of Michigan.
