About this map

The Mecan River meanders through this portion of central Wisconsin, defining a landscape marked by small agricultural settlements and extensive wetlands. The village of Germania anchors the southeast corner, while the community of Budsin sits further west near the junction of several local routes. This area is characterized by a high density of rural burial sites and churches, providing significant genealogical value through locations like Saint Johns Lutheran Cem, Tagatz Cem, and the Emmanuel Evangelical Crystal Lake Cem near Tuttle Lake.

Glacial geography is evident in the numerous water bodies, including Crystal Lake, Lake of the Woods, and Comstock Lake. Terrain features such as Stone Hill and Mt Pisgah rise above the surrounding lowlands, which are drained by tributaries like Lunch Cr and Chaffee Cr. The map captures the established rural road network that connects the northern settlement of Dakota to the southern townships across the Waushara and Marquette county line.
