1968 Map of Kent Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The General Motors Proving Ground dominates the central landscape of this Livingston County survey, illustrating the significant industrial footprint of the automotive industry in Michigan during the late 1960s. To the south, the Island Lake State Recreation Area and the massive Kent Lake reveal a region defined by post-war recreational development along the Huron River. The map captures a mix of established community institutions and developing infrastructure, from the Brighton Hosp and Brighton Townhall to the small settlement of Sutherland. Genealogists may find value in the location of several family and community landmarks, including Brighton Cem and Mott Cem. The presence of Camp Dearborn and Lakeside Camp alongside numerous small water bodies like Lake of the Pines and Maxfield Lake highlights the area's transition into a prime residential and leisure destination.
