About this map

The drifting ridge-and-valley landscape of the Wisconsin and Illinois borderlands defines this area, where local economies have long been tied to the mineral-rich soils of the Driftless Area. Cuba City stands as a central hub at the intersection of Grant and Lafayette counties, while the historic mining and smelting centers of Hazel Green and Benton anchor the southern portion of the sheet. The drainage patterns of the Sinsinawa River and the Galena River carve through the terrain, illustrating the geographic factors that dictated early road placement and settlement growth.

Local history is preserved in sites like Mount Pleasant Cem and Providence Cem, which serve as landmarks for genealogists and researchers. Smaller agricultural hamlets such as Georgetown, Saint Rose, and Strawbridge are connected by a network of rural routes including Saint Rose Rd and Bumcombe Rd. The survey also marks the tri-county corner where Grant, Lafayette, and Jo Daviess counties meet at the state line.
