About this map

Stittsville and the surrounding townships in Missaukee County are defined by a landscape of extensive wetlands and scattered rural settlements. The drainage patterns of the area are dominated by massive marshy features such as Thornton Swamp, Moorestown Swamp, and the winding Dead Stream. These wetlands alternate with local high points like Baldy and Allen Hill, creating a mosaic of dry upland and damp lowland.

Genealogists will find several significant burial sites throughout the quadrangle, including Stittsville Cem, Sunnyside Cem, and Pioneer Cem. The settlement at Moorestown is supported by the Moorestown Airpark, while a grid of section roads like E Johnson Rd and E Walker Rd provides access to the remote reaches of Cutcheon and the surrounding timberland. This 2023 survey illustrates the enduring rural character of Northern Michigan's interior, where the human footprint is carefully etched into a naturally saturated terrain.
