2018 Map of Hartford East

About this map

Hartford and Slinger serve as the primary hubs in this part of Washington County, where the landscape is defined by its glacial hydrology. The waters of Pike Lake and the Rubicon River dominate the central topography, while the Oconomowoc River and Flynn Cr flow through the southern reaches near Richfield. This era of development shows a network of established crossroads and rural hamlets, including Saint Lawrence to the north and the cluster at Ackerville. Local history and genealogy interest is anchored by several burial sites, such as Union Cem and Old Saint Peter Cem, which sit near the shifting elevations of the Kettle Moraine. The presence of Hartford Millpond 32 reflects the historical importance of water management in supporting the local economy and early industry along the riverbanks.
