1957 Map of Traverse City

Outside the urban core, the map captures a network of small agricultural and lakeside settlements such as Suttons Bay, Bingham, and Greilickville (Rennies Station). Genealogists will find numerous local landmarks, including the Lautner Sch (Abandoned), St Marys Cem, and several one-room schoolhouses like Lone Tree Sch that served these rural townships. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad line follows the shoreline of Lake Leelanau, illustrating the vital connection between the cherry-growing region and broader markets.
