2018 Map of Marengo

About this map

Marengo sits at the heart of this Northwoods landscape, where the confluence of the Marengo River and Brunsweiler River shapes the local geography. The settlement patterns reflect a legacy of rural development in Ashland County, with the smaller clusters of Minersville and North York positioned along established transit corridors. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Trout Brook, Billy Creek, and Hunts Creek, which traverse the undulating terrain toward the northern lowlands. Local history is anchored by sites like the Maple Grove Cemetery and numerous family-named roads such as Silas Blackman Road and Charles Johnson Road, marking the footprints of early residents. The northeastern corner is punctuated by Moonshine Lake, while the land is divided into a grid of section lines and township boundaries that reveal the systematic surveying of this Wisconsin timber and river country.
