2015 Map of Edgar

About this map

Edgar serves as the primary hub of this Marathon County landscape, where the grid of residential streets like W Maple St meets the agricultural hinterland. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the wide path of the Big Rib River and its tributaries such as Scotch Cr and Soda Cr. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies several significant burial sites, including the Tessmer Pioneer Cem in the north and the Baesemann Cem near the settlement of Rib Falls. In the northwest corner, the community of Poniatowski remains centered around the Holy Trinity Cem. The transition from rural homesteads to the village core of Edgar illustrates the long-standing dairy and farming tradition of central Wisconsin, connected by a systematic grid of county roads and avenues.
