1941 Map of Samaria

USGS Topo · Published 1941

About this map

Agricultural life in Monroe County dominates this 1941 survey, showing a landscape defined by an extensive network of drainage systems like Yarger Drain and Rapideau Drain. Small rural settlements such as Yargerville, Gilday, and Lookwood are centered around crossroads and country institutions, including the Yargerville Sch and Zion Ch. The southern portion of the map reveals a shift toward industrial transportation near Vienna Junction, where the Pere Marquette railroad and the massive Ottawa Yard facilitate freight movement. Local genealogists will find value in the precise locations of the St Joseph Cem and Erie Union Cem, alongside family-named roads that reflect the early 20th-century landownership patterns of Erie and La Salle townships.
