1960 Map of Kinderhook

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Kinderhook and the surrounding townships of Bethel, Ovid, and Gilead define this borderland landscape between Michigan and Indiana. The area is characterized by an intricate network of glacial lakes, including the prominent Lake of the Woods, Pleasant Lake, and Lake Lavine. Small rural settlements like East Gilead and West Kinderhook serve as local hubs, while educational and social foundations are represented by Snow Prairie Sch and School No 6. Along the southern margin, the Indiana Toll Road cuts across Millgrove and Jamestown, signaling the postwar modernization of regional transit. Genealogists will find value in the clear marking of family-named sites such as Knauss Cem and Browns Point on Lake George. The map reflects a mid-century agricultural and recreational economy, where gravel pits operate near quiet lakeshores and small unincorporated hamlets persist alongside new interstate infrastructure.
