1969 Map of Browns Corners

About this map

The Middle Branch Tobacco River and its northern counterpart wind through this central Michigan landscape, defining the rural character of the Arthur and Sheridan townships. At the time of this 1969 field check, the region was characterized by scattered farmsteads and small crossroads like Browns Corners and Dover. A remnant of earlier industrial logistics is visible in the Old Railroad Grade cutting across the northern sections, while the local social fabric is traced through landmarks like Arthur Center Sch and St Johns Ch. Significant portions of the northwest are dedicated to the Chippewa River State Forest, preserving the wooded wetlands around Lily Lake and Upper Brennan Lake. The presence of several family-named burial grounds, including Ott Cem and Wood Cem, provides essential points of interest for genealogists mapping the early families of Clare County.
