1965 Map of Starks

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Glacial lakes and marshy lowlands dominate this mid-century view of Oneida County, where the settlement of Starks sits at the junction of the east-west Soo Line and the north-south Chicago and North Western railroads. This transportation corridor served a landscape defined by water and forest, notably featuring the expansive Stella Lake and the smaller Ginty Lake. Social life centered on landmarks like the Stella Sch and a local Townhall, while the presence of several Gravel Pit sites near Gagen points to the area's geological and industrial utility. The survey illustrates a transition from the wilder marshes of Gudegast Creek to the organized township boundaries of Stella, Three Lakes, and Piehl, showing how the railroad and early road networks shaped the development of these Northwoods communities.
