1961 Map of Oregon
USGS Topo · Published 1983About this map
Agricultural lands and emerging residential centers define this area of Dane County as it appeared in the early 1960s, with updates reflecting growth into the early 1980s. The village of Oregon serves as a primary hub, situated along the Chicago and North Western rail line. To the north, the township of Fitchburg contains smaller community anchors like the Fitchburg Center Sch and Maples Corners Sch. The landscape is characterized by glacial features including Barney Swamp, Lake Barney, and Goose Lake, alongside the rolling terrain of Fisher Valley. Institutional presence is notable through the Oregon State Camp and Farm and the Oakhill Correctional Institution. Local history is preserved in numerous burial sites such as Prairie Mound Cem and the Story Cem, reflecting the early settlement patterns of the Story and Oak Hall neighborhoods.
