1974 Map of Oconto Falls South

About this map

Oconto River defines the northeastern corner of this Oconto County landscape, flowing past the city of Oconto Falls and the Flats Recreation Area. The geography transitions from the river's path into the extensive Morgan Marsh, while the Pensaukee River winds through the southern townships of Morgan and Chase. This 1974 survey documents a rural infrastructure deeply tied to family-named roads and agrarian centers, such as Sampson and the area surrounding St Johns Ch. Local education and community nodes are preserved through the locations of the Degantown Sch and Fairview Sch, along with the Volk Cem near the northern boundary. The presence of numerous Gravel Pits and Sandpits scattered across the township suggests the active role of local glacial deposits in the regional economy during the mid-1970s.
