About this map

The Lemonweir River and Little Lemonweir River converge just north of New Lisbon, shaping a landscape where water and transport networks define the local character. This 1983 revision shows the prominent footprint of Volk Field (Air National Guard) in the west, while the southeastern corner is dominated by the city of New Lisbon and the adjacent New Lisbon Lake. The Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad tracks bisect the southern half of the quadrangle, passing through a rural landscape dotted with family-named burial sites such as Brewster Cem, Lone Rock Cem, and St Stephens Cem.

The terrain is marked by notable features like Twin Bluffs and numerous gravel extractions, reflecting the area's geomorphology. Recreation and conservation are evident at Kennedy County Park, which sits along a winding stretch of the river. Settlements like Lone Rock and Orange Mill provide focal points for tracing local family history and rural development patterns in Juneau County during the early 1980s.
