2018 Map of New Franken

About this map

Green Bay and the shoreline of Lake Michigan define the northwestern edge of this Wisconsin landscape, where several distinct coastal and inland settlements are documented. Communities such as Edgewater Beach, Benderville, and Champion are situated among a network of rural roads, while the interior is marked by the expansive New Franken Swamp. The map shows a clear pattern of local religious and genealogical history through numerous burial sites, including the Seventh-day Adventist Cem, Saint Killian Cem, and Pleasant Hill Cem. Transportation and commerce are represented by the Nicolet Airport and the winding paths of School Cr, Gibson Cr, and the Kewaunee River. The terrain transitions from the coastal elevations at Point Comfort to the agricultural reaches near Sugar Bush and Walhain, providing a detailed look at the rural infrastructure and land use in Brown and Kewaunee Counties.
