1951 Map of Barbeau

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Munuscong State Forest covers the southern reaches of this Eastern Upper Peninsula landscape, where drainage patterns define the rural settlement of Bruce Township. The mid-century survey reveals a highly organized educational network, with small schools such as Parkerville Sch, West McCarron Sch, and East McCarron Sch serving localized farm clusters. These crossroads communities, including Donaldson, McCarron, and Barbeau, are connected by a grid of dirt and unimproved roads like Shunk Road and Meridian Road. The presence of several institutional markers, including the Donaldson Cem and the McCarron Ch, alongside the Barbeau Tower, illustrates a stable rural society before the consolidation of the late 20th century. Waterways like the Charlotte River and the Little Munuscong River meander through the woodlots and fields, influencing the placement of early homesteads and schools like the Corktown Sch.
