About this map

Beaver Dam Lake and its surrounding wetlands dominate this Barron County landscape, where the city of Cumberland sits surrounded by water. The local geography is defined by a dense concentration of glacial lakes, from Kirby Lake in the north to Scott Lake and Mud Lake in the south. The road network follows a rigid section-line grid, exemplified by numeric routes like 28th Ave and 21st Ave, which cut through the drainage basins of Sand Creek and the Hay River.

Genealogists and local historians can pinpoint significant community sites within the town limits and its outskirts, such as Lakeside Cem and Saint Anthony Abbott Catholic Cem. The map illustrates the close relationship between the built environment and the shoreline, with Library Lake and Collingwood Lake integrated directly into the town's south side, reflecting the era's modern residential and civic layout.
