1945 Map of Davisburg

About this map

Davisburg serves as a focal point in the southern portion of this mid-1940s survey, where the Shiawassee river flows through a landscape of kettle lakes and family-named roads. The northern section transitions into Groveland, centered on the intersection at Austin Corners. This map captures a rural Oakland County before significant post-war suburbanization, showing a reliance on localized institutions like the Brondige Sch and the Bigelow Cem along Bigelow Rd. The terrain is characterized by numerous water bodies, including Long Lake, Eliza Lake, and Kirby Lake, which suggest the glacial topography of the region. Local transit is defined by a grid of named thoroughfares such as Rappalee Lake Rd and Wildwood Rd, linking these small agricultural and lakeside communities.
