Summary

Angeline Bluff is a named Beaver Island area in the held local newspaper corpus. The September 1961 Beaver Beacon says six young wild turkeys were released there, and the November follow-up uses the variant “Angeline’s Bluff” while reporting that the birds had survived and grown.

Evidence and limits

The sources establish the name and its association with the release area, but do not provide coordinates, a surveyed boundary, a formal feature class, or a clear explanation of the name. The article therefore remains a broad, source-qualified Place rather than a mapped bluff or landform subtype.

Open questions

  • Where exactly was Angeline Bluff, and can a map, survey, parcel record, or GNIS entry locate it?
  • Is the feature the same place as the area below Angeline’s Bluff mentioned in later local history?
  • What is the source history of the singular and possessive name forms?
