2017 Map of Floyd

About this map

The Chippewa River and Pine River define the hydraulic character of this Midland County landscape, where complex drainage systems like Baker Drain and Knapp Cutoff Drain support the surrounding agricultural tracts. Small communities and historical crossroads such as Floyd, Saint Elmo, and Porter serve as local anchors, while the Lee Township Cem and Porter Township Cem offer specific points of interest for those tracing family history in the region. The map reveals a dense network of country roads, including W Saint Elmo Trce and W Manitou Trl, which weave through the lowlands between Salt Creek and Little Salt Cr. This detailed documentation of the area's tributaries, from Turkey Cr to Sickle Cr, provides a clear view of how water management and settlement patterns have shaped the Midland and Saginaw valley borderlands.
