About this map

Avalon and Johnstown Center anchor a landscape defined by the agricultural rhythms and township boundaries of the Rock County and Walworth County line. The map highlights a network of rural settlements, including Richmond and Fairfield, connected by a grid of thoroughfares like Co Hwy A and S State Rd 140. This topography is bisected by several watercourses, most notably Turtle Creek and Spring Brook, which create low-lying drainage patterns across the otherwise steady terrain.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial sites, such as North Johnstown Cem and Old Johnstown Cem, which mark the early centers of community life in these townships. The inclusion of the Johnstown Center Airport and various family-named roads, such as S Riley Rd and S Trescher Rd, provides a clear view of how modern infrastructure and legacy family holdings intersect in this corner of Wisconsin.
