About this map

Auroraville and the winding Willow Creek anchor this mid-2010s survey of the wetland-rich corridor between the Pine River and the Fox River. The landscape is defined by the expansive Poygan Marsh and the western reaches of Lake Poygan, where Pumpkinseed Creek meets the open water. This area has long been shaped by its water resources, evidenced by the Auroraville Millpond and the rural settlements of Fountain Valley and Borth.

For genealogists and local historians, the map identifies several significant burial sites across the township, including Pine Grove Cem, Poy Sippi Cem, and the remote Sheads Island Cem. The intersection of county roads like Co RD Q and Co RD XX traces the modern infrastructure laid over an older agrarian framework, where roads like Liberty School Rd and Bell School Rd still preserve the names of vanished local institutions.
