About this map

The Biron Flowage of the Wisconsin River anchors this landscape at the boundary of Wood Co and Portage Co. Near the northern bank, the Linwood Union Cem serves as a significant genealogical landmark, while the village of Biron and the settlement at Meehan define the local residential footprint. The terrain is notably aquatic, dominated by drainage networks like Mill Creek, Twomile Cr, and Buena Vista Cr that feed into the central waterway or nearby Lake Wazeecha.

Extensive wetlands such as Bear Creek Marsh and named features like Pleasure Island suggest a land managed for both water control and recreation. The map details a dense rural road network, including family-named routes like Wells Rd and Gumz Rd, which illustrate the 21st-century parceling of these central Wisconsin townships. This survey provides a clear view of the intersection between industrial water usage and the natural marshland ecology characteristic of the region.
