Most of these townships (at least in the Lower Peninsula) are based on survey townships of 36 square miles (93 km2). In some less populated counties in Northern Michigan as well as in the Upper Peninsula, civil townships often comprise several survey townships (such areas are often expanses of National or State Forests).

Famous quotes containing the words list of and/or list:

    Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.
    Janet Frame (b. 1924)

    A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
