2014 Map of Hadley

About this map

The settlement of Hadley and its surrounding glacial terrain define this section of Lapeer County, where the Hadley Hills rise to notable elevations such as Pinnacle Point. The landscape is densely pocketed with small lakes and kettle ponds, including Big Fish Lake, Lake Lapeer, and the serpentine Shinanguag Lake near Goodrich. This 2014 survey documents a mature rural network of roads like Pratt Rd and Hadley Rd that connect several early burial grounds, including Hadley Village Cem, Sanborn Cem, and Green Corners Cem. The map reveals how the modern residential developments around Lake Lapeer contrast with the traditional agricultural tracts and marshy lowlands near Kearsley Cr and Hasler Cr. This interplay between recreation-focused lakeside living and the established farming community is clearly visible through the density of structures and the distribution of local schools and churches in the town centers.
