2018 Map of Wells

About this map

Wells serves as the central community in this portion of Ottawa County, situated among a network of rural routes that follow the section lines of the Public Land Survey System. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Lindsey Cr and Sand Cr, which drain the undulating terrain between N 210th Rd and N 170th Rd. Genealogists will find the Pleasant Hill Cem near the intersection of Quartz Rd and N 180th Rd, a primary landmark for local family history. The drainage of Pipe Cr and Middle Pipe Cr in the northern reaches further illustrates the hydrological patterns that dictated early land use and road placement in this agricultural region.
