About this map

The settlement of Tipton serves as the focal point for this 2011 survey, situated in a landscape defined by an intricate network of glacial lakes and local drainage systems. To the north, Iron Mill Pond and Half Moon Lake connect via Iron Creek, while the southern reaches feature the extensive Evans Lake and its neighbor Jefferey Lake. This geography has long shaped the local economy and recreational culture, evidenced by the presence of the Tecumseh Woods Camp and the Jado Park Campground.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named burial grounds across the township, including Franklin Cemetery, Wisner Cemetery, and Reynolds Corners Cemetery. The rural road grid, comprised of routes such as Monagan Hwy and Tipton Hwy, connects these historic sites to modern landmarks like the Manchester Speedway. The Tipton Post Office remains a central civic anchor, while water features like Hidden Lake and Keeney Lake highlight the area's ongoing character as a destination for seasonal residence and outdoor life.
