2014 Map of Royston

About this map

The North Br Thunder Bay River and Ocqueoc River define the watery landscape of this northern Michigan region, where three counties — Presque Isle, Montmorency, and Alpena — converge. This 2014 survey reveals a territory marked by numerous lakes and wetlands, including Lake Ferdelman, Marl Bed Lake, and Lake Ruth. The small settlement of Royston sits near the Alpena county line, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural road network. Local history and genealogy are anchored by the Montmorency Cem and Saint Johns Cem located south of Hubert Rd. The drainage patterns of Truax Cr and Grass Cr illustrate the complex hydrography that has shaped land use and property boundaries across the Wellington Township area for generations.
