1963 Map of Roscommon South

About this map

Roscommon serves as the focal point for this mid-century survey, situated at the intersection of the New York Central railroad and regional roadways. The landscape is dominated by the extensive Houghton Lake State Forest, characterized by its complex network of wetlands and prominent elevations like Murray Hill and Ninemile Hill. Significant water management is evident at the Robinson Creek Dam, which created the large Robinson Creek Flooding area. Local infrastructure includes the Gerrish-Higgins Sch, the Township Cem, and the Roscommon Airfield. The map also captures the natural drainage of the region via the South Branch Au Sable River and Hudson Creek, which weave through Crossway Swamp and the Ninemile Swamp, illustrating the delicate balance between the area's timber resources and its hydraulic environment.
