List Of Counties In Michigan
There are 83 counties in the U.S. state of Michigan. The boundaries of these counties have not changed substantially since 1897. However, throughout the 19th century, the state legislature frequently adjusted county boundaries. County creation was intended to fulfill the goal of establishing government over unorganized territory, but a more important goal was encouraging settlement by surveying the land and dividing it into saleable sections. The creation of counties generally occurred in two stages. First the boundaries of a county were declared and given a name. The county appeared on maps, even though this may have been the entire extent of a county's tangible existence for several years. During this period, the as-yet–unorganized county was attached to another already organized county for administrative purposes. The legislature frequently changed the administrative attachment of these unorganized counties. Residents of such an attached county could petition the legislatu ...

Area Code 906
Area code 906 is the telephone area code in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. History Area code 906 was formed in an area code split of numbering plan area (NPA) area code 616, 616 on March 19, 1961. The split was implemented in a flash cut, with no permissive dialing period. 906 is among the least populous numbering plan areas in North America, serving only about 320,000 people. The latest NANP projections estimate the exhaustion of vacant central office codes for the 906 area code until the early to mid 22nd century, meaning that the Upper Peninsula will not need another area code for several decades. The area code has inspired an unofficial holiday in the Upper Peninsula on September 6 (906 correlating to the Calendar date#Gregorian.2C month-day-year .28MDY.29, month/day date). Prior to October 2021, area code 906 had telephone numbers assigned for the central office code 988. In 2020, ''988'' was designated nationwide as a dialing co ...

Geographic Names Information System
The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) is a database of name and location information about more than two million physical and cultural features, encompassing the United States and its territories; the Compact of Free Association, associated states of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and Palau; and Antarctica.

Data were collected in two phases. Although a third phase was considered, which would have handled name changes where local usages differed from maps, it was never begun. The database is part of a system that includes topographic map names and bibliographic references. The names of books and historic maps that confirm the feature or place name are cited. Variant names, alternatives to official federal names for a feature, are also recor ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
