1978 Map of Morrison

About this map

The agricultural landscape of Glenmore and Morrison townships is defined by a dense network of country roads and small crossroads settlements in the late 1970s. This survey of southern Brown County reveals the traditional layout of Wisconsin dairy country, where towns like Morrison, Wayside, and Lark served as local hubs. The map is particularly useful for genealogists, as it identifies several rural institutions including St Mary Ch, Zion Cem, and Immanuel Sch. Low-lying areas like Morrison Swamp and Copperstown Swamp interrupt the surveyed grid, while the Devils River winds through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. Industrial activity is noted at the Quarry near Morrison and several gravel pits, showing the local extraction that supported the area's development. Public land is represented by the Way-Mor County Park, situated along the winding course of the Branch River.
