1979 Map of Lindsey

About this map

Lindsey sits at the heart of this late-1970s landscape where the borders of Wood and Clark Counties meet. The terrain is defined by low-lying wetlands and subtle elevations like Burdock Mound and Espey Mound, along with the notable Lindsey Bluffs. A network of rural infrastructure supports the local agricultural economy, including the Nasonville Sch and Grace Ch near the eastern boundary. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade cutting across the central portion of the sheet provides evidence of former transport corridors through the marshes. Waterways are abundant, with the East Fork Black River and Yellow River draining the township lands. To the south, the local Townhall and Rock Cem serve as focal points for the township of Cary, while numerous gravel pits and sandpits indicate the active extraction of natural resources from the glacial drift common to this part of Wisconsin.
