About this map

Rozellville sits at the northern edge of this landscape, where the boundary between Marathon and Wood counties divides a region defined by its creek-fed farmland. The topography is shaped by a network of small waterways, including the winding Little Eau Pleine River and tributaries like Scheuer Cr and Squaw Cr. These drainage patterns influenced the placement of early settlements and the grid of section roads like Co Rd C and Stadt Ave N.

Genealogists will find significant detail in the clustering of community sites, particularly around Hewitt and Auburndale. The map documents several burial grounds, including Saint Michaels Cem, Immanuel Cem, and Saint Marys Cem, which serve as anchors for the local history of these rural townships. The southern portion of the area is further characterized by the corridor of Railroad Dr, reflecting the historic transportation links that supported the agricultural economy of central Wisconsin.
