1907 Map of Cross Plains
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
Glacial drift and terminal moraines define the complex topography across Cross Plains and the surrounding townships in the early twentieth century. The map illustrates a landscape of high ridges and narrow valleys where early infrastructure follows the path of least resistance, such as the Chicago Milwaukee and St Paul Railway tracing the valley of Black Earth Creek. This transit corridor links established hubs like Black Earth and Middleton with smaller rural points like Marxville and Pine Bluff.
