2022 Map of Brownsville
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
Brownsville sits at the base of the steep Wildcat Bluff on the western banks of the Mississippi River, where the landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the river valley to high timbered ridges. This 2022 survey captures the complex drainage of Wildcat Creek and Wildcat Cr as they cut through the upland terrain of German Ridge and Miller Ridge. The map is particularly notable for its high density of small family burial sites and community cemeteries, including the Christoph Hammer Family Cem, Frederick Hammer Family Cem, Neumann Family Cem, and Hackett's Grove Cem. Along the riverfront, the survey details the intricate network of backwaters and side channels, including Lawrence Lake and Coon Slough, as well as numerous named islands like Browns Island and Cygnet Island, reflecting the ever-shifting hydrology of the Upper Mississippi River valley.
