1964 Map of Bark Bay

About this map

Bark Point and Roman Point define this coastal landscape where the waters of Lake Superior meet the northern Wisconsin shoreline. In the mid-1960s, the area was characterized by a mix of managed timberlands within the Chequamegon National Forest and local industrial activity, evidenced by several Gravel Pits scattered near the coast. The settlement pattern is relatively sparse, with the Herbster Cem serving as a significant landmark for local family histories.
