1962 Map of Daleyville

About this map

Daleyville sits at the heart of this agricultural landscape along the border of Iowa and Dane counties, where the terrain is deeply carved by the Blue Mounds Branch and German Valley Branch. This early 1960s survey documents a densely settled rural community defined by its local institutions, including numerous country schools such as Ruste Sch, Lukken Sch, and Barber Sch. The presence of the Townhall in Perry and churches like Hauge Ch suggests a well-established civic life centered around these high ridges and valleys. Evidence of local industry is visible in the scattered quarry sites that dot the hillsides, particularly near the settlement of Forward. From Indian Hill in the south to the outskirts of Mt Horeb in the north, the map provides a look at the network of township roads and property boundaries that shaped this corner of Wisconsin.
