1967 Map of Tecumseh North

About this map

Tecumseh and Clinton anchor this mid-century look at the Raisin River valley, where the industrial and civic heart of southeastern Michigan is clearly defined. The Penn Central rail line cuts a northwest-southeast path through the landscape, connecting these primary settlements and skirting the edge of the River Raisin. In the southern portion of the sheet, the expansive Red Millpond and Standish Pond illustrate the local water management and industrial history tied to the river's flow. Small hamlets like Bridgewater Center and Newburg appear alongside rural landmarks such as the Assembly of God Ch and Wesley Fellowship Ch. Genealogists will find particular value in the detailed plotting of Brookside Cemetery and several Cem or Alen Cem sites, while the infrastructure of the era is marked by a Radio Tower and municipal sites like the Post Office and City Hall in downtown Tecumseh.
