No, but it mentioned Croswell-Lexington and the bend in the river leads me to believe its Peck Road.

Did this come from a source that identified it as Peck Road?

Only because, Sanborn Street just to the north shows a through truss that would presumably still have been there until 1974. (On HA, 1959 has the best identifying image of the truss.)
