1963 Map of Argyle

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Austin Center and Argyle anchor this rural landscape in the early 1960s, a region defined by its extensive drainage network and small-town infrastructure. The map reveals a high concentration of local schools including Argyle Sch, Starr Sch, Wheeler Sch, and McBride Sch, indicating a well-populated agricultural community at the time of the 1963 field check. The eastern edge is dominated by the Minden City State Game Area, while the central terrain is carved by the Middle Branch Cass River and various man-made channels like Hobbs Drain and Franzel Drain. Genealogists will find value in the placement of community landmarks like Freidberger church and several burial grounds, including Mt Pleasant Cem and Wheatland Cem. The grid of county roads, such as Argyle Road and Deckerville Road, connects these dispersed settlements and gravel pits, reflecting the area's mid-century rural economy.
