2014 Map of Walton

About this map

Walton and Walton Junction serve as the primary hubs in this landscape, situated near the boundary between Grand Traverse and Wexford Counties. This area reflects a quiet rural character defined by small crossroads and family-named points of interest. Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites scattered across the township, including the Iliff Grave, Sparling Cem, Milks Cem, Dell Cem, and Walton Cem, which suggest the locations of early homesteads. The topography is marked by significant wetlands like Walton Marsh and the Walton Outlet, while the N Country National Scenic Trail winds through the eastern half of the map. Small water bodies like Parsons Lake and Downs Lake break up the wooded terrain, providing a look at the natural geography surrounding the historic settlement of McManus Corner.
