1950 Map of Parrish

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Parrish and the surrounding north woods of Langlade and Lincoln Counties appear as a landscape transitioning from the logging era to a mix of forestry and rural settlement in this 1950 field examination. Evidence of the region's industrial past is etched across the terrain in the form of an Old Railroad Grade that once served the timber camps, while numerous Fire Lanes crisscross the townships of Harrison, Elcho, and Summit. Social centers for the local community are well-documented, including several schools like the Liberty Bell Sch and the Rocky Glen Sch. Notably, the map records the cultural heritage of European immigrants through labels for the Estonian Ch and Lettish Ch near Gleason. High points such as Lookout Mountain Tower and Baldy Hill overlook a dense network of water bodies, including Two Island Lake, Seven Island L, and Lake Clara.
