About this map

St Clair County International Airport serves as a modern anchor in this landscape of St. Clair County, which transitions from the northern conservation lands of the Port Huron State Game Area toward the residential pockets of Sparlingville and Smiths Creek. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of drainage channels and small waterways, including the Black River and Pine River, which supported the early agricultural layout of the region.

Genealogists will find significant local history preserved in the community churches and cemeteries scattered across the townships, such as Holy Rosary Ch, St Marys Cem, and Caswell Cem. The coexistence of the Johnson Landing Strip alongside established schools like the Educational Service Center and Community Independent Sch illustrates the area's development as a regional hub for aviation and public services in the late twentieth century.
