About this map

Agricultural drainage and section-line roads define the landscape of Bloomfield Township and its surroundings in this modern Huron County survey. The Lutheran Cem stands as a central local landmark amidst a complex network of waterways, including the Bloomfield Sigel Drain and E Br Willow Cr. The map reveals the sophisticated irrigation and management of this Thumb region terrain, where named channels like the Essenmacher Drain, Savage Drain, and Schelke Drain parallel the grid of rural routes. Genealogists can trace family connections through these land divisions and the placement of the cemetery near the intersection of Duda Rd and S Parisville Rd. The presence of numerous drains like the Rock Falls Cr and Boltzer Drain indicates the historical effort to reclaim and maintain this productive farmland.
