1961 Map of Lake Fremont

About this map

The Lake Fremont (Zimmerman PO) settlement serves as a focal point for this portion of Sherburne County, situated where the Great Northern railroad cuts through the glacial landscape. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of wetlands and small lakes, including West Hunter Lake, East Hunter Lake, and Rice Lake, many of which feed into the meandering course of Tibbits Brook. Local civic life and history are reflected in the presence of the Community Hall and the Livonia Cem, while the conservation of the area is highlighted by the Fremont Wildlife Management Area. This 1961 survey, updated through 1980, captures the rural character of Livonia and Baldwin townships before significant modern expansion, preserving the location of family-named landmarks like Whitney Cem and the Lookout Tower overlooking the lake country.
