1963 Map of Neshkoro

About this map

Fox River and the Mecan River converge in this central Wisconsin landscape, forming a complex network of wetlands and waterways during the early 1960s. The region is anchored by the larger settlements of Neshkoro and Princeton, the latter of which serves as a hub where the Chicago And North Western railroad crosses the river. The map details a rural society organized around small schools like Rabbit Sch and numerous country burial grounds, including Mt Tom Cem and Dayton Cem. To the southeast, the deep waters of Green Lake meet the shoreline community of Green Lake Terrace, while the southwestern corner is dominated by the broad expanse of Puckaway Lake. This era shows the persistence of small-scale agriculture and early aviation, marked by the Bed And Von Landing Field, alongside numerous Gravel Pits that suggest local industrial activity.
