About this map

The East Branch Rock River anchors this agricultural landscape north of Mayville, driving the historical development of settlements like Kekoskee and LeRoy. The river's path is marked by several water control features, including the Kekoskee Dam and the Furnace Bridge Dam, which created the Kekoskee Millpond 182 and Lower Mayville Millpond 174. These millponds suggest a legacy of local industry tied to the water's flow before it enters the northern reaches of the marsh.

Rural life in this part of Dodge County is documented through its scattered hamlets and local landmarks. Genealogists can locate several burial grounds including Mount Pleasant Cemetery and Tidyman Cemetery, while the Golden Grove School and Piepers Fruit Farm reflect the community's educational and agricultural foundations. Smaller drainages like Gill Creek and Irish Creek cut through the grid of country roads, connecting the smaller clusters of Farmersville and Knowles.
