1939 Map of Porterfield
USGS Topo · Published 1952About this map
The Peshtigo River winds through the heart of Marinette County, powering the Potato Rapids Power Dam and defining the local economy during the late 1930s. This survey illustrates a landscape transitioning from wilder marshlands and timber tracts to an organized network of rural school districts. One can trace the proliferation of dozens of local schoolhouses, including the Hale Road Sch, Section Seven Sch, and Evergreen Sch, which served the scattered farming communities of Lake and Grover townships.
