1956 Map of Kalkaska

About this map

Kalkaska serves as the hub of this 1950s survey, situated where the Pennsylvania Railroad cuts across a landscape dominated by the Au Sable State Forest. The map documents a rural network of small settlements like Smithville, Lodi, and Sigma, alongside numerous isolated schools such as Perrin Sch and the Maplegrove Sch (Abandoned). These institutions, along with country churches like Excelsior Ch, provide critical points of reference for genealogists tracing mid-century family locations.
