About this map

The Wisconsin River carves a broad path through this landscape south of Biron, defining the local geography with features like Pleasure Island and the sprawling banks near Rocky Run. The settlement of Meehan serves as a focal point along the state road, while the surrounding Wood County countryside is crisscrossed by a grid of rural lanes and family-named routes such as Huffman Rd and Gumz Rd.

Genealogical interest is centered at the Linwood Union Cemetery, situated near the confluence of Mill Creek and the river. The southern reaches of the map show a complex drainage system where Quinnell Creek, Twomile Creek, and Buena Vista Creek flow through the lowlands. This survey illustrates the 21st-century balance between the industrial river corridor and the enduring agricultural layout of the Central Wisconsin plains.
