1931 Map of Baldwin NE

USGS Topo · Published 1931

About this map

Idlewild and the surrounding Lake County landscape appear here during the early 1930s, showing a transition from dense woodland to established rural communities. This region, encompassing parts of the Peacock State Forest and Webber National Forest, is defined by its complex hydrology, with numerous small bodies of water like Idlewild Lake and Government Lake dotting the map. The Pere Marquette railroad cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle, serving the small settlements of Ungers and Baldwin. A network of rural schools, including Kinney Sch, Webber Sch, and Armstrong Sch, indicates a distributed community structure typical of the Michigan north woods before the consolidation of the mid-20th century. The presence of State Highway No 37 and U S Hy No 10 highlights the increasing importance of automotive travel through these timbered lands.
