About this map

Belleville serves as the primary hub of this 2010 landscape, where the Sugar River is managed by the Belleville WP90-18 Dam to form Lake-Belle View 178. The village grid and surrounding township reflect a modern rural structure, yet the presence of the Badger State Trl following an old corridor suggests the evolving use of former transport lines. To the south, the terrain is defined by the confluence of several waterways, including the Little Sugar River and the Silver School Branch, which flow through a network of family-named roads and agricultural plots.

Genealogists and local historians can locate early settlement traces at Exeter and Ross Crossing, along with smaller communities like Dayton. Resting places for generations of residents are preserved at Saint James Cemetery and Exeter Cemetery. This survey documents a transition in the region's land use, where traditional farming infrastructure meets conservation and recreation corridors near the Dane and Green County borders.
