2016 Map of Germania

About this map

Germania and Budsin anchor this central Wisconsin landscape, where the Mecan River and its tributaries wind through a mosaic of wetlands and glacial lakes. The 2016 survey documents a rural corridor defined by historical burial grounds, including Saint Johns Lutheran Cem and Emmanuel Evangelical Crystal Lake Cem, which serve as vital markers for local genealogical research. The terrain is punctuated by modest elevations like Mt Pisgah and Stone Hill, overlooking a series of water bodies such as Tuttle Lake, Crystal Lake, and Lake of the Woods. This mapping reveals a structured network of county roads and avenues that connect the small settlements of Marquette and Waushara Counties, illustrating a persistent agricultural and residential pattern that has remained consistent into the 21st century.
