1976 Map of Hersperia SW

About this map

The settlement of Ferry sits as the primary human focal point in this 1976 orthophotoquad, which uses aerial imagery to document the rural landscape of Oceana County. Unlike a traditional topographic map, this photographic survey reveals the precise textures of Michigan’s agricultural and forested terrain, showing the intricate patchwork of cultivated fields and woodlots. The meandering river valley and numerous small lakes and wetlands across the quadrangle highlight the area's complex glacial geography. Researchers can observe the interplay between developed farmstead clearings and the dense vegetation that borders the winding waterways, providing a clear visual record of mid-1970s land use patterns in this part of western Michigan.
