About this map

Pinconning serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the Pinconning River winds through agricultural lowlands before emptying into the waters of Saginaw Bay. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including the Michalski Drain and Willette Drain, which support the region's fertile plains. Along the shoreline of Lake Huron, features such as Nayanquing Point, Mallard Point, and Lengsville Point mark the transition from land to water, while the Pinconning Bar extends into the bay.

Local history is preserved in several burial grounds, including Saint Michaels Cem, Saint John Memorial Cem, and the Pinconning Area Cem, which serve as vital landmarks for genealogical research. Small coastal landings like Meyers Beach and the rural junction at Lengsville Point illustrate the settlement patterns of Bay County. The map details the grid of township roads such as E Pinconning Rd and N Tower Beach Rd, showing the layout of this Michigan community in the early twenty-first century.
