About this map

The Yahara River and its upper tributaries define the landscape of this southern Wisconsin region along the Columbia and Dane County border. Agricultural land dominates the area, punctuated by a network of rural settlements such as North Leeds, Leeds, and Keyeser. The village of Morrisonville stands out in the southwest, supported by specialized infrastructure like the Morrisonville International Airport, while DeForest begins to appear at the southern edge.

Genealogists can trace family heritage through several burial grounds, including Greenwood Cem, Leeds Center Cem, and North Windsor Cem. The natural drainage patterns of the North Branch Crawfish River and Schoenberg Marsh illustrate the wetland environment characteristic of the glaciated terrain. This 2016 survey captures a transitional moment where traditional farming communities intersect with modern aviation facilities like Del Monte Airport and Elert Airport.
