1963 Map of Ellington

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Ellington and its surrounding townships in Tuscola County are defined by a complex network of agricultural drainage and the winding path of the East Branch Cass River. In the early 1960s, the landscape was a mix of small rural centers like Colwood and Elmwood and expansive wooded sections, most notably within the State Game Area in the south. The prevalence of named drains, such as the Haidyjz McNeil Drain and Honey Marsh Drain, illustrates the intensive effort required to manage the low-lying terrain for farming. Rural life remains anchored by local institutions, including the Colwood Ch and several country schools like Humes Sch. A dedicated Radio Tower near the center of the township and scattered Gravel Pits point to the local infrastructure and industry supporting this Michigan community during the mid-century.
