2017 Map of Eagle

About this map

The Looking Glass River and the Grand River converge toward the northwestern and southeastern reaches of this landscape, defining the rural character of Clinton and Eaton Counties. Centered on the village of Eagle, the area maintains a layout of agricultural plots and drainage systems like the Kramer Drain and McCausey Br. Transportation is dominated by the modern diagonal of the Grand River Hwy, which cuts across older road networks such as W Herbison Rd and Cutler Rd. For those tracing local families, the map includes several small burial sites, including North Eagle Cem, Eddy Cem, and Union Cem. The periphery of the sheet captures the edges of larger communities, with Portland appearing in the northwest corner and the outskirts of Grand Ledge visible in the southeast, providing a clear view of the transitions between small-town centers and the surrounding farm country.
