About this map

Magnor Lake and Camelia Lake anchor a landscape defined by a dense network of glacial water bodies and meandering streams in this northern Wisconsin study. The village area near W Clayton Ave and E Clayton Ave serves as a local hub where Us-63 intersects with a grid of rural avenues and streets. This transport corridor aligns with the natural drainage patterns of Nepadoggen Cr and the upper reaches of the South Fork Hay River.

The map reveals a transition from the wetland-heavy terrain around Marsh Lake and Mud Lake to the more structured section lines of the surrounding townships. Local landmarks like Barbo Lake and Gilbert Lake provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family properties near the Polk and Barron county borders. The intricate hydrography, including the North Branch Beaver Brook and South Branch Beaver Brook, highlights the complex water systems that shaped early settlement and land use in the region.
