Try this:  In local/Content.MichiganCounties.php, place the line 
(apologies in advance for it's length -- such is HTML):

$LinkPageCreateFmt = "<a class='createlinktext'
href='\$PageUrl?action=edit&amp;template=Content.CountyTemplate'>\$LinkText</a><a
class='createlink'
href='\$PageUrl?action=edit&amp;template=Content.CountyTemplate'>?</a>";

This changes the "edit new page" link for Content.MichiganCounties to
automatically include the template= parameter.

Ok, having just tested it, that works just >peachy<!  I will add some
Cookbook material on the subject as soon as the website is accessible
again.
