2014 Map of Reed City South

About this map

Reed City sits at the northern edge of this West Michigan landscape, where the southern reaches of the city meet a complex network of rural roads and watercourses. This 2014 survey documents a region defined by its small settlements and numerous burying grounds, including Woodland Cem and the Mennonite Cem. To the west, the boundaries of the Manistee National Forest overlap with the hamlet of Hawkins, while the community of Paris is situated in the southeastern corner near the Mecosta Co line. The terrain is drained by several creeks such as Buckhorn Cr, Paris Cr, and Sanders Cr, which carve through the townships. The map records a modern infrastructure of county roads and throughways like Mackinac Trl that follow long-established section lines, connecting the scattered homesteads and local landmarks like Saint Anne's Cem and Barton Township Cem.
