1959 Map of Lake Mills
USGS Topo · Published 1961About this map
Rock Lake serves as the central focal point for this mid-century portrait of Jefferson County, with the city of Lake Mills established along its eastern shore. The landscape is a classic example of Wisconsin's glaciated terrain, characterized by a dense network of small lakes including Hope Lake, Bean Lake, and Mud Lake, interspersed with numerous Gravel Pits and drumlin-like landforms. The local economy and social fabric of the 1950s are visible through the high concentration of rural schoolhouses, such as Stony Brook Sch, Plainview Sch, and Harvey Sch, which remain mapped alongside long-standing local landmarks like Hoopers Mill on the Crawfish River.
