About this map

The North Branch Milwaukee River carves a winding path through this Sheboygan County landscape, connecting the rural communities of Batavia, Beechwood, and Boltonville. This 2010 survey illustrates a region defined by its glacial hydrology and agricultural roots, where numerous small waterways like Mink Creek and Stony Creek feed into larger basins. Local history is anchored by a significant number of denominational burial grounds, including the Saint Stephen Lutheran Cemetery and Zion United Methodist Cemetery, which reflect the area's early settlement patterns.

Industrial and recreational uses of the land are visible in features such as the Gooseville Millpond 40 and its associated dam, alongside the conservation and youth-oriented space at Camp Awana. The presence of the Cranberry Marsh and several small kettle lakes, such as Lake Sixteen and Beechwood Lake, highlights the complex wetland ecosystems that persist among the county highways and farm plots.
