About this map

Hilbert and the surrounding agricultural landscape of Calumet County are defined by a grid of rural homesteads and family-named roads such as Military Road and Gerrits Road. The village of Hilbert serves as a local hub, anchored by its proximity to the North Branch Manitowoc River and the industrial infrastructure of the Hilbert Junction. This late 20th-century survey shows the area's spiritual and community life through sites like Saint Peters Ch, Saint Marys Ch, and the Forest Assembly Ground.

Transitioning into the wetlands of the Brillion State Wildlife Area, the terrain shifts from the cultivated fields of Woodville and Brillion to protected marshlands. Traces of earlier transportation networks remain visible, including an Old Railroad corridor passing through Dundas. The map documents a stable rural economy, with active Gravel Pit operations and well-established cemeteries, such as Forest Cemetery, that anchor the region's genealogical history.
