About this map

Lake Koshkonong dominates the southern landscape of this Jefferson County region, where the Rock River feeds into a complex system of bays and wetlands including Stinkers Bay, Gilbert Bay, and Mud Lake. The shoreline is characterized by distinct residential clusters and historical sites, such as Koshkonong Manor, North Shore, and the curiously named Vinnie Ha Ha. Of significant archaeological interest are the Sylvan Mounds in the north and Koshkonong Mounds near the southern shore, indicating a long history of human presence in this riverine environment.

Further inland, the settlement of Oakland serves as a central hub for a network of rural roads like Co Rd A and Co Rd J. Near the western edge, Busseyville sits along the banks of Koshkonong Creek. The map also details the area's agricultural and community foundation, marked by locations like Union Cem and landforms such as Blackhawk Island, which separates the main lake from surrounding marshland.
