1969 Map of Coleman NE

About this map

The North Branch Tobacco River and Middle Branch Tobacco River wind through this central Michigan landscape, defining the rural character of Gladwin and Clare counties in the late 1960s. The map illustrates a transition from timber and agricultural lands toward mid-century resource extraction, marked by numerous Oil Wells and a dedicated Oil Field in Grout Township. Small community hubs like Kerswill and Buzzell are anchored by local landmarks such as West Grout Ch and the nearby Grout Cem. The recreation and water management of the era are visible through the extensive shoreline of Wiggins Lake and Lake Twenty, along with the Golf Course and a Lookout Tower positioned for forest monitoring. Extensive local transport is documented via named section roads like Mannsiding Road and Kerswill Road, which connect these dispersed settlements and work sites.
