About this map

The Pennsylvania and New York Central rail lines anchor this mid-century survey of the West Michigan landscape, illustrating the transportation corridors that defined Wayland, Moline, and Bradley. The terrain is punctuated by significant water bodies, most notably the sprawling Gun Lake, which is surrounded by family-named landmarks and recreation sites like the Yankee Springs Recreation Area. This sheet reveals the rural social fabric of Allegan County through its numerous country schools, including St Stanislaus Sch and the Sproat Sch, along with community cemeteries like Maplewood Cem.
