2017 Map of Williamsburg

About this map

Old Mission Peninsula and the eastern shores of the East Arm Grand Traverse Bay define this corner of Grand Traverse County. The landscape is characterized by a high concentration of small cemeteries, including Williamsburg Cem, Circle Hill Cem, and Yuba Acme Township Cem, which serve as vital reference points for local genealogical research. Small settlements like Yuba and Bates sit along the drainage paths of Yuba Cr and Acme Cr, while Williamsburg anchors the southern portion of the map near the Williamsburg Cr. To the north, the transition from the bay to inland waters is marked by Petobego Pond and the expansive Elk Lake at the Antrim County border. This survey reflects the region's long-standing character as a collection of established rural communities defined by their proximity to the Lake Michigan shoreline and a network of named local roads.
