1969 Map of Edwards

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Houghton Lake State Forest and the Tittabawassee River State Forest dominate this Central Michigan landscape, where dense woodlands meet a network of glacial lakes and small-scale industry. In the late 1960s, the rural community of Edwards served as a local hub, anchored by the Edwards Ch and the nearby Edwards Cem. The terrain is defined by its water and drainage patterns, from the northern Gear Lake and Tee Lake down to the Tittabawassee River and its Middle Branch in the south. An active natural resource economy is evident through the numerous Gravel Pits and clustered Oil Wells scattered across the township lines. This area, spanning the borders of Ogemaw, Gladwin, and Roscommon counties, shows a mix of recreational forest land and remote agricultural life, with family-named routes like Kartes Road and Diebold Road providing access to the interior.
