About this map

The low-lying wetlands of Missaukee County define this portion of Michigan, where Dead Stream and several large marshes like Haymarsh Swamp and Excelsior Swamp dominate the landscape. This 2017 study illustrates a rural township structure anchored by small settlements such as Moorestown and Stittsville, which grew around local agricultural and timber interests. The presence of Pioneer Cem, Stittsville Cem, and West Branch Cem provides significant genealogical value for those tracing family roots in Norwich Township.

Upland features such as Baldy and Allen Hill break the otherwise flat terrain, while Moorestown Airpark indicates modern local aviation infrastructure. The map reveals a highly regular grid of rural roads including N 7 Mile Rd and W Moorestown Rd, typical of the region's section-line development. From the northern reaches near Round Swamp to the southern corner at Cutcheon, the map details a landscape where seasonal drainage and swamp systems like Remington Swamp and Moorestown Swamp remain central to the area's geography.
