1972 Map of Evans Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Thunder Bay River State Forest dominates this Alpena County landscape, where the Thunder Bay River winds through a dense network of tributaries and lowlands. The rural townships of Green, Wilson, and Ossineke are defined by a grid of farm-to-market roads, including Werth Road and Herron Road, which connect isolated homesteads and local civic landmarks. Genealogical interest is centered on the cluster of religious sites like St Matthew Ch, St Paul Ch, and Salem Ch, along with their associated burial grounds. The presence of numerous Gravel Pits and a Sandpit scattered across the township lines suggests a local economy tied to natural resource extraction and road building. Terrain features such as Smokey Hollow and the marshy expanses around Widner Creek illustrate the water-rich geography of the region during the early 1970s.
