1981 Map of Milan

About this map

The Big Eau Pleine River winds through this central Wisconsin landscape, joined by tributaries like Randall Creek and Marsh Creek. Small rural settlements like Milan and Cherokee serve as local anchors, while the terrain is dotted with several neighborhood burial grounds including St Thomas Cem, Bethlehem Cem, and Pilgrim Rest Cem. This 1981 survey reveals a structured agricultural and industrial grid, defined by the boundaries of Holton, Johnson, Hull, and Frankfort townships. Beyond the farms, the presence of Gravel Pits and the Sewage Disposal Ponds near Milan points to the infrastructure supporting these small communities during the early 1980s. For those looking for recreation, the Wayside Park and County Park provide green spaces near the riverbanks.
