1969 Map of Montrose

About this map

The Misteguay Creek valley defines the landscape of this region as it flows north toward the county line, passing through a patchwork of agricultural fields and small settlements. The village of Montrose serves as the primary population center in the east, situated where the Grand Trunk Western railroad meets the winding path of the Flint River. This survey captures the rural infrastructure of the late 1960s, evidenced by a dense network of family-named roads such as Sigmund Road and Ferden Road, and a collection of local institutions that anchored these farming communities.
