1962 Map of Footville
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Footville and Hanover stand as primary rail-oriented settlements in this 1962 landscape, situated where the Chicago And North Western and Milwaukee St Paul And Pacific lines cross the agricultural plains of Rock County. The map reveals a highly developed rural social structure defined by family and community institutions, including the Grove Cem and several local educational landmarks such as the Red Brick Sch, Ellis Sch, and Bog Sch. The terrain is drained by the winding courses of Bass Creek, Marsh Creek, and Stevens Creek, while the presence of a Quarry, Gravel Pit, and Sandpit point to local extractive industries supporting the area's infrastructure. This survey captures the transition of these small Wisconsin villages as they maintained their rail-linked identities during the early 1960s.
