About this map

The agrarian landscape of Huron County’s eastern interior meets the shore of Lake Huron at the northeast corner of this 1970s survey. Defined by a strictly rectilinear road grid, the region encompasses the townships of Bloomfield, Huron City, Gore, and Rubicon. These townships are threaded by an extensive drainage network, including Willow Creek, Diamond Creek, and dozens of engineered channels like the Kaufman Drain and Huron City Drain.

Small social hubs are scattered across the farmland, most notably at Lewisville and Redman. Local history details are preserved in the form of the Townhall near the northern boundary and the Red School to the south. Genealogists may find value in the location of the Marquardt Cemetery or the isolated Grave near the lakeshore. Economic activity is represented by scattered infrastructure, including a Gravel Pit and an Oil Well tucked along the East Branch Willow Creek.
