2011 Map of Dimondale

About this map

The Grand River meanders through the landscape south of Lansing, anchoring the riverside village of Dimondale. This 2011 survey captures a suburbanizing region where older agricultural crossroads like West Windsor and Delta Center coexist with modern transportation corridors. The map provides significant genealogical value, documenting numerous burial sites across the township including Pioneer Cemetery, Delta Center Cemetery, and the Pray Cemetery to the south. Local commerce and civic life are centered around the Dimondale Post Office and the Potterville Post Office in the southwest corner. Tributaries like Miller Creek, Carrier Creek, and Silver Creek define the drainage patterns of the area, while the Whaley Drain reflects the historical engineering required to manage the low-lying terrain for development and farming.
