About this map

The Lancaster region of southwest Wisconsin and the adjacent river borders of Iowa and Illinois appear here during a period of established rail-and-river commerce. The Mississippi River serves as the dominant geographical feature, its banks dotted with landings and crossings such as Spechts Ferry and Mc Cartney. This survey captures the intricate network of the Chicago and Northwestern Ry and the Chicago Milwaukee and St. Paul Ry, which linked upland farming communities like Beetown and Bloomington to the larger river economy.
