About this map

Edgar serves as the primary hub of this Marathon County landscape, where the street grid organizes around the central junction of several rural arteries. To the north, the small settlement of Poniatowski stands near the Holy Trinity Cemetery and the Tessmer Pioneer Cemetery, suggesting the early lineage of this farming community. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the Big Rib River which flows past Rib Falls in the northeast.

Smaller tributaries like Scotch Creek, Pet Brook, and Soda Creek carve through the agricultural blocks, many of which are accessed by family-named routes such as Weinkauf Rd and Chesak Rd. The distribution of burial sites, including the Baesemann Cemetery near the river, provides significant points of interest for genealogists tracing the 19th and 20th-century development of these Wisconsin townships.
