1973 Map of Sanford
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
The Tittabawassee River corridor defines this Midland County landscape, flowing south through Sanford Lake into the heart of Sanford. The area is a mix of managed woodlands and industry, evidenced by the large State Forest blocks and an active Oil Field near North Bradley. Significant 1970s infrastructure includes the powerplant at the Sanford dam and the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad cutting across the terrain. Local history and genealogy are well-preserved through several landmarks, such as the Sanford Sch, Township Cem, and Geneva Cem. Small settlements like Francis Grove and Olson dot the rural road network, while recreational areas like the Black Creek Forest Campground and Veterans Memorial Park hug the water's edge.
