About this map

Shabbona and Wickware anchor this section of Sanilac County, where the landscape is defined by the convergence of several major waterways. The South Branch Cass River and Middle Branch Cass River wind through the central part of the quadrangle, joined by managed water systems like the Argyle Howey Drain. This 2011 survey reveals a strictly organized rural grid of roads, including Deckerville Rd and Shabbona Rd, reflecting the long-standing agricultural layout of Greenleaf Township.

Local heritage is preserved in small, localized sites such as the Nicol Family Cemetery and Evergreen Cemetery, which provide specific points of interest for genealogical research. Further south, the Port Huron Camp sits near the North Branch White Creek, indicating a land use mix of farming, family burial grounds, and recreational or community spaces. The map illustrates how natural drainage features like Greenman Creek and Stony Creek dictate the placement of roads and property boundaries in this Michigan thumb region.
