About this map

Newberry and the small settlement at Roberts Corner anchor this Luce County landscape, characterized by the intricate drainage systems of the Upper Peninsula. The northern reaches are defined by the winding course of the Tahquamenon River, while the southern and central sections are dominated by the Sage River and its tributary, the West Branch Sage River. The presence of the Big Ditch and its namesake Big Ditch Rd indicates a history of land management and water control in these wetlands.

Transportation in the area relies on a network of county roads and specialized routes such as Mcphee Landing Rd and the Mc Leod Truck Trl, which navigate the wooded and marshy terrain. The Luce County Airport serves as a modern focal point for regional connectivity. Genealogists and historians can trace the distribution of rural homesteads and minor locales like Lencel, situated amidst the dense network of creeks including Thirtynine Cr and First Cr.
