About this map

The Escanaba River winds through this section of Marquette County, defining the drainage patterns and early settlement layout in this part of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. In 1932, the landscape was a mix of emerging civic infrastructure and logging-era outposts. The Chicago and Northwestern railroad cuts through the center of the region, providing the primary transport link for local resources. Educational and community life centered around several rural schools, including Ewing Sch No 1, Ewing Sch, and Lincoln Sch, while the presence of Sharkeys Camp and Finn Camp suggests the seasonal or industrial work patterns of the time. The intersection of roads near the Town Hall reveals a localized hub of activity, contrasting with the expansive wetlands and river valleys of the Beaver Branch and Hunters Brook.
