1972 Map of Fairview

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Au Sable River cuts a wide, meandering path through the heart of this central Oscoda County landscape, separating the townships of Comins and Mentor. In the early 1970s, this region remained heavily defined by the vast timberlands of the Huron National Forest and Oscoda State Forest. The settlement of Fairview serves as a local hub in the north, while the village of Mio occupies the southwest corner near the river's edge. Traces of the region's logging and transport history are evident in the numerous corridors labeled Old Railroad Grade and Private Railroad, which once moved timber through the dense woods. Smaller settlements like Kneeland and localized landmarks such as the Mio Airport and Weaver Cem provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family footprints in this rural Michigan woodland.
