About this map

Belle River and the Pine River define this corner of Saint Clair County, where the landscape is marked by a complex system of drainage and energy infrastructure. The community of Rattle Run sits at the northern end of the map near the Rattle Run Cemetery, while industrial activity is visible further south at the Big Hand Oil Field and the Belle River Mills Gas Storage Area. These sites, along with the Adair Gas and Oil Field, illustrate the region's long-standing connection to local resource extraction.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds across the township, including Saint Marys Cemetery near the eastern edge and the Balfour Cemetery along the river. Transportation and recreation are represented by the Crystal Airport and Camp Hawthorn, while smaller locales like Belle River Mills and the Wenning Landing Area provide specific points of interest for those tracing family ties to this rural Michigan landscape.
