1974 Map of Oneida North

About this map

The Suamico River and its South Branch cut across a landscape defined by dairy farming and evolving municipal boundaries in the mid-1970s. This area, spanning the intersection of Brown, Outagamie, and Shawano counties, shows a series of small rural centers like Kunesh, Pittsfield, and Anston connected by straight-line section roads. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Oneida community and the State Reformatory Far, reflecting the complex land-use patterns of the region. Local history is anchored by rural institutions, from the Lannoye Sch and Peace Ch to several family-named burial grounds like Owego Cem and Zion Cem. The Chicago and North Western railroad provides a clear industrial corridor through the northeast, while numerous sandpits across the terrain indicate the geological remnants of the region's glacial past.
