2010 Map of Dunbridge

About this map

Scotch Ridge and the surrounding agricultural landscape of Wood County define this region, where the grid of rural roads meets the winding course of the North Branch Portage River. The map reveals a high density of burial sites important for genealogical research, including the Belleville Ridge Cemetery, New Belleville Ridge Cemetery, and Brandeberry Cemetery. Settlement clusters like Dunbridge and Dowling are established along early transport corridors, while more specialized land use is seen at the Devils Hole Prairie and the private Ranchport Airport. The drainage patterns of the Toussaint Creek and Packer Creek suggest the engineering required to maintain this productive farmland, once part of the Great Black Swamp region.
