About this map

The Pecatonica River winds through the heart of this Lafayette County landscape, serving as the central geographic feature for the city of Darlington. This 2016 survey captures the town's street grid and its connection to the surrounding agricultural highlands, where a dense network of country roads like Furnace Hill Rd and Mount Pleasant Rd provide access to outlying farmsteads. The confluence of several tributaries, including Otter Creek, Ames Branch, and Vinegar Br, indicates a highly dissected terrain shaped by the regional drainage systems.

Local history and genealogy are anchored by established landmarks such as the Holy Rosary Cem and the small community of Red Rock to the southeast. The map reflects a modern rural Wisconsin economy, showing the distribution of woodlots and open fields across the township boundaries of t3n r3e and t3n r4e. These details offer a comprehensive view of the land use and hydrology near the Illinois border.
