2018 Map of Attica

About this map

The Sugar River meanders through the heart of the Exeter countryside, anchoring a landscape defined by small-scale agriculture and early pioneer legacies. In the southeast, Brooklyn sits at the intersection of Dane and Green Counties, while the unincorporated settlement of Attica remains a quiet outpost on the river’s edge. This area is characterized by its network of creeks—including Story Creek, Allen Creek, and Gill Creek—which cut through the terrain near notable landmarks like Liberty Pole Hill. Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy paths such as English Settlement Rd and Norwegian Rd, which reflect the nineteenth-century immigrant groups that established these homesteads. The Jug Prairie Cem provides a specific point of reference for researchers investigating the families who first cleared these fields.
