1962 Map of Marshall

About this map

The Maunesha River winds through the heart of the Wisconsin countryside, anchoring the development of Marshall and the surrounding townships of York and Medina. In the early 1960s, this landscape was defined by its agricultural character and the critical infrastructure of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad, which parallels the river. The presence of multiple community burial grounds, such as York Center Cem and Deansville Cem, highlights the long-standing family settlements in this region. The northern reaches are dominated by the Deansville Marsh, while smaller water bodies like Mud Creek and Spring Creek illustrate the natural drainage patterns that shaped the placement of local homesteads and small centers like York Center.
