1939 Map of Cassian

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

American Legion State Forest dominates the northern reaches of this Oneida County landscape, where glacial kettle lakes and wetlands define the terrain. The late 1930s rail network remains vital here, with the Chicago and Northwestern Ry and Soo Line intersecting at key nodes like Heafford Junction and serving rural outposts such as Cassian (Deer Trail Sta). This survey captures a transition in local infrastructure, showing the State Prison Farm near McNaughton and a dense network of one-room schoolhouses, including Fernwood Sch and Lily Lake Sch, which anchored these remote logging and farming communities. The presence of the Porcupine Fire Tower and numerous named spurs like McKays Spur speaks to the region's forestry roots and the constant vigilance required in the Northwoods timberlands.
