1973 Map of Gordonville

About this map

The Chippewa River and Pine River converge in this mid-1970s survey of the landscape south of Midland. The area's industrial character is defined by the numerous Brine Wells scattered across the townships of Homer, Mount Haley, and Ingersoll, reflecting the region's history of chemical and mineral extraction. This map captures the rural-to-suburban transition, documented through clusters of family and community landmarks like Dice Corners, the Townhall in Mount Haley, and several educational sites including Bullock Creek High Sch. Local genealogy is well-represented by several burial grounds, including Wayne Cem and Poseyville Cem, alongside several country churches. The northeastern corner shows the edge of Midland's city infrastructure, featuring Emerson Park, the Golf Course, and the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor tracking alongside the Tittabawassee River.
