About this map

Marinette and Menominee anchor this 2011 survey, situated along the border of Wisconsin and Michigan where the Menominee River meets the bay. The map documents a corridor of infrastructure and aviation, notably the Menominee-Marinette Twin County Airport and the smaller Larson Airport to the south. Along the river, distinctive island features like Stephenson Island, Boom Island, and Blueberry Island sit near the historic Indian Mound, suggesting a landscape shaped by both natural river movements and long-standing human presence.

Further inland, the community of Peshtigo is detailed alongside the meandering Peshtigo River and the Peshtigo Flowage 1086. The survey is particularly valuable for genealogists, as it identifies a concentrated cluster of cemeteries south of the main city center, including Woodlawn Cemetery, Calvary Cemetery, Saint Joseph Cemetery, and the Hebrew Cemetery. These burial grounds, alongside Glenwood Memorial Gardens, provide a clear layout of the region's communal history and growth.
