1943 Map of Wayne

About this map

Wayne and Plymouth anchor this survey of western Wayne County, conducted just as the region began its transition from a rural landscape to a vital suburban and industrial corridor. The Pere Marquette railroad cuts through the northern section, passing by Newburg Lake and the Triangle Airport, while the Lower River Rouge meanders through the central townships. The map is particularly rich in family and local history markers, recording a dense network of country schools such as the Canton Center Sch and Walker Sch, alongside numerous small burial grounds including Chubb Cem and Downer Cem.
