About this map

The St. Marys River corridor and its bustling international border dominate this 1941 survey by the Corps of Engineers U.S. Army. Centered on Sault Ste. Marie, the map details a landscape transition from the industrial and urban grid of the city to a hinterland of small farming communities and educational outposts. The presence of the County Farm and Fair Grounds reflects the civic infrastructure of Chippewa County during this era. Rural life is anchored by a dense network of country schools like Gardenville School and Barbeau School, alongside community hubs such as the Heptan Store. The Minneapolis St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie railroad cuts diagonally across the southern townships, providing a vital link for settlements like Dafter and Donaldson to the regional maritime and industrial economy along Mosquito Bay.
