1965 Map of Pompeii

About this map

Maple River winds through the southern reaches of this mid-Michigan landscape, creating a wetland corridor protected as a State Game Area by the mid-1960s. The region is defined by its rectilinear agricultural grid, with long stretches of Grand Trunk Road and State Road connecting small rural hubs. The settlement of Pompeii serves as a central point of interest, while the northern village of North Star (Northstar PO) marks a site of early commerce and mail service. This survey provides a clear view of the communal infrastructure that sustained these farming townships, from the Townhall and Washington Center Sch to the East Washington Ch and Bethel Chapel. Family-named landmarks like Barnes Cem and Collier Cem offer valuable points for genealogical research, identifying the resting places and landholdings of early area residents within the townships of Newark, North Star, Fulton, and Washington.
