About this map

Lodi serves as the focal point of this mid-1970s landscape, where the Chicago and North Western railroad cuts a diagonal path toward the Wisconsin River. To the northwest, the river widens significantly into Lake Wisconsin, creating a distinctive shoreline that defines the settlements of Harmony Grove and Okee. The terrain is characterized by prominent elevations like Gibraltar Rock and Pine Bluff, with the former preserved within Gibraltar Rock County Park.

South of the city, the Lodi Marsh State Wildlife Area occupies the lowlands surrounding Spring Creek, contrasting with the higher agricultural plains divided by family-named routes such as Koltes Road and Van Ness Road. Genealogists will find value in the clearly marked locations of St Patricks Cem, Garden Bluff Cem, and Mount Pleasant Cem, which anchor the local history of these rural townships across the Columbia, Dane, and Sauk county lines.
