2010 Map of Cecil

About this map

Cecil sits at the junction of waterways and local travel routes, serving as a hub for the surrounding dairy lands and lakefront properties of Shawano County. The landscape is defined by the massive eastern reach of Shawano Lake, which transitions into a complex system of smaller water bodies including White Clay Lake and the Pensaukee Lakes. This 2010 survey illustrates the area's rural character, where the grid of county highways like County Hwy R and County Hwy V connects scattered settlements such as Tracy Corners with local landmarks like the Deer Haven Ranch Airport. Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds preserved across the landscape, from the Saint Paul Lutheran Cemetery in the south to the Underhill Cemetery near the Oconto River in the northeast. The drainage patterns of the West Branch Shloc River and Duchess Creek reveal the subtle elevation changes that define this region of Wisconsin.
