2011 Map of Brothertown

About this map

Lake Winnebago forms the western boundary of this landscape, its shoreline dotted with residential clusters and recreational access points including Calumet Harbor, Artesia Beach, and Laudolf Beach. The eastern shore transitions into an agricultural grid defined by several long-standing cemeteries that suggest the deep lineage of the local population. Small settlements like Brothertown, Jericho, and Johnsburg anchor the interior, while the headwaters of the South Branch Manitowoc River begin their trek toward Lake Michigan. The placement of the Dick Family Cemetery and Morrill Family Cemetery near the lake bluffs indicates early family farmsteads that preceded the modern road network. This survey reveals a community balanced between the maritime influence of the Great Lakes system and the inland farming traditions of Fond du Lac County.
