1939 Map of St. Clair

About this map

The St Clair River corridor serves as a busy international boundary during the late 1930s, anchoring the settlement of St Clair and the smaller hamlets of Hawthorne and Courtright on the Canadian shore. This survey details a transition from town life to riverfront recreation, notably featuring the St Clair River Country Club and the Pine Shore Golf Course north of the Pine River confluence. Local education and community life are well-documented through a series of rural landmarks, including the Red Brick Sch, Hathaway Sch, and the St Marys Cem. The map illustrates the specialized transportation network of the era, with the Port Huron and Detroit railroad and several Pere Marquette lines facilitating movement through the fertile river lowlands between the Belle River and the international waters surrounding Stag Island.
