Summary
This record represents current Michigan DNR parcel 1127570, with reported area 31.6 acres and division/department Wildlife Division. It is a state parcel-geometry and management record, not a county tax card or deed.
Legal description and current classification
The held source gives this legal-description text:
Part of NE1/4 SE1/4, Frl. Sec. 14 included in the following desription: North Fox Island, being fractional Sections 11, 12, 13, 14, 23, and 24, all in T35N, R13W, which includes Lots 1 through 10, North Fox Island Subdivision, according to the Plat thereof as recorded in Liber 4, Page 14 et seq., Leelanau County Records.
The source fields are preserved as data evidence. A DNR division label can support a cautious statement about the agency’s mapped management assignment; it does not establish the full chain of title or identify a private propertyholder.
Survey joins

It also intersects these state quarter-quarter records:
- PLSS quarter-quarter 35N13W14SESE
- PLSS quarter-quarter 35N13W14NESE

Where a held GLO township/range sheet covers the same geometry, it is linked as well. These are spatial joins for navigation, not proof that the historical plat depicts the modern parcel boundary.
Open questions
- What deed, patent, legislative transfer, or state acquisition record supports the present DNR status?
- Does a county parcel/tax record provide a current owner or exemption history?
- Which historical owner or land use occupied this legal description before state acquisition?
