2015 Map of Mason

About this map

The settlement of Mason serves as the focal point for this survey of southern Bayfield County, positioned where several regional corridors meet near the White River. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including the broad Bibon Marsh and the winding paths of Twentymile Cr and Eighteenmile Cr. These drainage patterns reflect the glacial legacy of northern Wisconsin, where numerous small tributaries like Spring Cr and Schramm Creek feed into larger river systems. A dense network of rural roads, many bearing family names such as Adolph Johnson Rd and Bernie Hecimowich Rd, provides a detailed record of local land ownership and the historical footprint of the logging and farming families who settled the area. The presence of the Mason Cem north of the village center further grounds this map for genealogical research in the Town of Mason.
