1980 Map of Clyman

About this map

Agricultural patterns and small-town intersections define the landscape around Clyman and Lebanon as documented in the late 1970s. The region is heavily marked by the infrastructure of the Chicago and North Western railroad, which meets at the local rail hub of Clyman Junction. The map provides significant genealogical value through its dense concentration of burial sites, including the Holy Assumption Cem, Clyman Center Cem, and Zion Cem, alongside smaller family or church plots such as Schmidt Cem and Fehling Cem. To the northeast, the shoreline of Sinissippi Lake transitions into wetlands fed by Dead Creek. These features illustrate a classic Wisconsin township structure where rural life centers on dispersed parish churches, local cemeteries, and transit points that once connected these farming communities to broader markets.
