USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
Tower and the surrounding Cheboygan County timberlands are defined by a network of state forests and the winding course of the Black River. This mid-century survey captures a landscape of transition where small settlements like Afton and Legrand are connected by the Detroit and Mackinac rail line and Adair Road. The presence of several defunct institutions, such as School No 2 and School No 1, alongside the Waverly Cem and the Free Ch, provides a clear view of the shifting rural population during the 1950s.
