1960 Map of Lima Center

About this map

Lima and Koshkonong townships meet in this 1960 landscape of southeastern Wisconsin, where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal path through the glacial terrain. The small community of Lima Center sits at the heart of the quadrangle, serving as a focal point for local families near the Lima Center Cem and North Lima Ch. To the northeast, the outskirts of Whitewater begin to emerge, featuring the local High Sch and the development of a Trailer Park. The drainage pattern is defined by several meandering waterways, including Otter Creek, Spring Brook, and Galloway Brook, which navigate between the low drumlins and marshy pockets characteristic of this region. Family history researchers will find notable landmarks like Union Cem and the small settlement of Utters Corners at the junction of Johnstown and Richmond townships.
