2023 Map of Wagarville

About this map

Lake Lancer and Lake Lancelot dominate the northern landscape of this Gladwin County survey, where residential developments like Lake Lochbrae meet the traditional rural character of mid-Michigan. The map documents a transition from the water-rich residential areas in the north to the agrarian and creek-fed plains of the south. Local history is centered around small crossroads settlements including Wagarville and McClure, where the McClure Cem and Sacred Heart Ch serve as enduring community landmarks. The drainage network is particularly dense, with the Sugar River and West Branch Tittabawassee River cutting through the terrain alongside numerous man-made features like Shell Drain and Weir Drain. This detail provides researchers with a clear view of how water management and lakeside living have shaped the modern geography of the area.
