1963 Map of Gagetown
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Gagetown sits at the intersection of agricultural and industrial history in this mid-century survey of the Huron Co Tuscola Co line. The village is a hub for the Grand Trunk Western RR, while the surrounding landscape is defined by an extensive network of man-made drainage systems like Cooley Drain and Rescue Drain that supported the local farming economy. Small settlements such as Bach and Rescue appear alongside rural landmarks, including Canboro Sch and Greenwood Sch. The map reveals the gradual evolution of transport, marking both the active rail lines and an Old RR Grade in the south near the Elkland Cemetery. Natural features like the Pigeon River and Mud Lake persist amidst a grid of section roads named for local families, such as Maxwell Road and Moore Road.
