About this map

Mount Olivet Cemetery, Saint Adalberts Cemetery, and Arlington Cemetery anchor a dense network of memorial grounds that define the landscape south of Milwaukee. This 2010 survey illustrates the suburban character of Greendale and Saint Francis, where residential grids are partitioned by major thoroughfares like W Cleveland Ave and W Layton Ave. The eastern portion is dominated by the sprawling infrastructure of General Mitchell International Airport, while the western side is shaped by the winding course of the Root River.

Genealogical interest is particularly high here due to the density of family burial sites, including Saint Paul Cemetery and Saint Peters Cemetery. The map also captures the industrial and civic layout of the period, from the Industrial Loop to the Milwaukee County House of Correction near the southern boundary. Natural features like Scout Lake and Mud Lake provide a sharp contrast to the surrounding development.
