1963 Map of Fish Point

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Fish Point Wildlife Area dominates this coastal landscape where the waters of Saginaw Bay meet the low-lying shoreline of Tuscola County. The map details a highly organized agricultural grid in the townships of Akron and Wisner, defined by an extensive network of drainage features like Ackerman Drain and Wisner Creek. These waterways were essential for converting the wetlands of the Thumb region into productive farmland. Small settlements such as Thomas, Bay Park, and Oakhurst appear as modest clusters along the bay shore, while the interior is dotted with local landmarks like the Hickory Highland Cem and a Townhall. An industrial legacy is noted by the presence of a Mine Dump near the eastern edge of the survey, contrasting with the recreational and conservation focus of the Fish Point peninsula.
