About this map

Banat and the surrounding timber and agricultural lands of Menominee County are defined by a dense network of river systems and rural county roads. The Shakey River winds through the central portion of the landscape, joined by tributaries like Little Shakey Cr and Rosebush Cr. This 2014 survey reveals a transition from the structured township grids of t36n r28w and t37n r28w to the more varied terrain of the Little Cedar River valley.

Evidence of the area's dairy and agricultural history is preserved in road names like Cheese Factory Rd and Homestead Ln. Small settlements such as Gardner and Nathan serve as focal points along the CR-577 corridor. Genealogists may find interest in the numerous family-named landmarks, including Wittick Ln S-1 and Mereck Lane Number 31 25, which map out the local landownership patterns of the early 21st century.
