2014 Map of Walkerville West

About this map

Elbridge and the western outskirts of Walkerville define this portion of Oceana County, where the sprawling Manistee National Forest occupies the central and northern reaches. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of water bodies and cemeteries, reflecting a long-established rural community within the glacial terrain. The S Br Pentwater River winds through the forest, joined by tributaries such as Routley Cr and Osborn Cr. Smaller lakes like Cobmoosa Lake, Pebawma Lake, and Evans Lake are scattered throughout, often surrounded by local roads like Harrison Rd and Filmore Rd. Genealogists will find a concentration of burial sites across the township, including Elbridge Township Cem, Saint Joseph's Catholic Cem, and the Goodrich Cem to the southeast. These landmarks, alongside the Carpenter Cem and Walkerville Cem, provide a clear spatial record of the area's early family settlements and religious centers.
