2018 Map of Fairburn

About this map

Fox River and White River converge in this low-lying wetland corridor, defining the rural landscape between Waushara and Green Lake counties. The small settlement of Fairburn sits at the center of a dense hydraulic network where the Town Drain, Puchyan River, and Sucker Cr intersect the agricultural flats. This 2018 survey reveals a terrain dominated by marshes and islands, such as Big Island, punctuated by localized high points like Mt Tom. For local historians and genealogists, the map provides precise locations for the Fairburn Cem and Saint Marie Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the area's early settlement. The intricate road system, including routes like Co Hwy E and Huckleberry Rd, traces the edges of these flood-prone basins, reflecting how modern infrastructure adapts to the historical drainage patterns of the region.
