About this map

The Rock River and Oconomowoc River define the hydraulic character of this Jefferson and Waukesha County landscape, where glacial legacy is evident in the cluster of kettle lakes and wetlands. The western reaches of Oconomowoc show significant residential development near Lac La Belle, while smaller agrarian hubs like Ixonia and Concord maintain a more rural footprint. Local heritage is anchored by sites like the Norwegian Cem and Concord Center Cem, offering specific points of interest for genealogists tracing early settlement patterns.

Transportation and recreation are prominent, from the mid-century interstate corridor to local aviation at Battle Creek Airport. Water bodies such as Golden Lake, Goose Lake, and Round Lake are interconnected by a network of creeks and marshes, including the Bark River and Duck Creek. This survey captures the transition between town life and the surrounding dairy country at the start of the 21st century.
