About this map

The glacial landscape of the Livingston and Washtenaw county border is defined by an extensive network of kettle lakes and wetlands in the early 1970s. This survey highlights the agricultural and recreational character of the region, anchored by the settlements of Gregory and Unadilla. The presence of the Old Railroad Grade running through the northern half of the map marks the path of former rail transit that once connected small hubs like Anderson and Bullis Crossing.

Genealogists can find several family-linked sites and rural burials, including Livermore Cem and Collins Plains Cem. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the sprawling public lands of the Pinckney State Recreation Area and Waterloo State Recreation Area, surrounding major water bodies like South Lake and Joslin Lake. Local landmarks such as the Richmond Airport and various youth camps like Camp Grindley and Camp Munhacke illustrate the area's mid-century role as a summer destination.
