2010 Map of Brodtville

About this map

Bagley and Brodtville anchor this 2010 study of the confluence area where the Wisconsin River meets the Mississippi River. The landscape is defined by its dramatic coulee and ridge topography, with deeply incised valleys like Gasner Hollow, Ready Hollow, and Dry Hollow draining toward the expansive river bottoms. Significant for genealogists, the map identifies Flint Cemetery in the central uplands and Bagley Cemetery near the riverfront. The intricate waterways of the State Line Slough and islands such as Weniger Island and Hovie Island demonstrate the complex hydrology of the Upper Mississippi River valley. Modern transportation is represented by the Great River Rd and a network of county highways that follow the contours of the high ridges, providing a clear view of the rural development patterns in Crawford County during the early 21st century.
