About this map

The village of Plainfield anchors the western edge of this central Wisconsin landscape, characterized by a high concentration of glacial kettle lakes and small cemeteries. This 2018 survey reveals a terrain defined by water, from larger basins like Lake Huron and Long Lake to smaller features such as Pumpkin Seed Lake and Fiddle Lake. The grid-like arrangement of roads, including Apache Rd and Aspen Ave, cuts through a predominantly agricultural and rural residential area, connecting the larger settlements with the surrounding countryside.

Genealogists will find a wealth of local landmarks, with numerous burial grounds scattered throughout the quadrangle, including Hillside Cem, Ray Cem, and the North Deerfield Cem. The southern edge of the map features the outskirts of Hancock, while the local transportation infrastructure is highlighted by the Plainfield International Airport. This detailed modern record preserves the contemporary layout of these small communities and their enduring relationship with the lake-dotted topography of the region.
