About this map

The south side of Cadillac and the recreational expanse of Lake Mitchell anchor this early 1980s survey of Wexford and Osceola counties. The map captures the city's southern expansion into Cherry Grove and Clam Lake townships, where civic landmarks like Mercy Hosp and Franklin Sch sit near the shore of Lake Cadillac. The northern reach of the Northern railroad line is visible, tracing a path through the landscape toward the heart of the city.

Beyond the urban limits, the terrain transitions into the heavily wooded sections of the Manistee National Forest and Pere Marquette State Forest. The rural character of the region is defined by scattered settlements like Hobart and Benson, while the Pine River and its North Branch wind through the township of Burdell. Local heritage is preserved in the locations of Mt Carmel Cem and Maple Hill Cemetery, offering significant detail for those tracing family roots in the area.
