About this map

The Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie railroad defines the southern corridor of this Upper Peninsula landscape, running parallel to US Highway No 2. Settlement is concentrated along these transit lines in the township of Ensign, where local life is anchored by the Anderson Sch. To the north, the terrain transitions into a complex network of wetlands and drainage basins, including the extensive Malmans Marsh and the many branches of the Ogontz River. The convergence of the North Br Ogontz River and West Br Ogontz River features the Seven Mile Dam, suggesting an era of water management or logging infrastructure. Cultural markers such as the Ogontz Cem and Ogontz Sch located near the river's eastern bend provide specific points of interest for genealogical research in this 1932 field-examined survey.
