2023 Map of Pickford

About this map

Pickford sits at the junction of Meridian Rd and M 129, serving as a central point in this agricultural landscape of the eastern Upper Peninsula. The drainage network of the Munuscong River and its various tributaries, including the East Branch Munuscong River and Little Munuscong River, dictates the placement of settlements and roads. Small rural hubs like Stirlingville and Kelden appear along the waterways, connected by a rigid grid of section-line roads like E 22 Mile Rd and S Keldon Rd. Genealogy researchers can find several burial sites preserved across these sections, including Bethel Cem to the west and Old Kelden Cem and Fairview Cem to the east. The terrain is characterized by winding creeks like Demoreux Creek and School Creek which snake through the level fields and wetland areas between the Mackinac and Chippewa county line.
