1963 Map of Lyon Manor

About this map

Higgins Lake dominates this northern Michigan landscape, with its shoreline transitioning from developed residential clusters to protected wildlands. The western shore is defined by the settlement of Lyon Manor, while the southeastern reach features the early infrastructure of Higgins Lake State Park and the distinct water body of Marl Lake. The survey details a landscape of managed woods and wetlands, including the Long Crossway Swamp and the Houghton Lake State Forest. Local civic and spiritual life is recorded through numerous small landmarks like the Townhall, Messiah Ch, and the Township Cem. The presence of scattered Gravel Pits and named points like Old Point Comfort and Detroit Point reflect the dual identity of the region as both a source of natural resources and a burgeoning destination for seasonal recreation and permanent settlement.
