2017 Map of Attica

About this map

Lum and Attica anchor this portion of Lapeer County, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of glacial lakes and managed drainage basins. The settlement at Attica is situated near Grass Lake and Elk Lake, while Lum is positioned further north, bordered by the Lum Cem. This area is particularly significant for genealogical research, as it preserves the locations of several historic burial grounds, including Bahel Cem near Daley RD and Roscoe Cem on the southern edge of the survey. The hydrology of the region is highly developed, featuring numerous named agricultural waterways such as Peasly Drain, Bishop Drain, and Swamp Corners Drain. These drainage systems illustrate the transformation of the natural wetlands surrounding Lake Pleasant and Fish Lake into a productive rural environment, connected by a grid of established thoroughfares like W Imlay City RD and Co HWY 52.
