1956 Map of Oconto Falls

About this map

The Oconto River serves as the central artery of this mid-century Wisconsin landscape, carving a path through the townships of Spruce, Lena, and Morgan. The city of Oconto Falls stands as the primary hub, where the river's North Branch joins the main stem near the Flats Recreation Area. This era shows a dense network of rural infrastructure, including an unusually high concentration of country schools such as Oak Sch, Sunshine Sch, and the Meadow Brook Sch, which was already noted as abandoned by the mid-1950s.
