About this map

Puckaway Lake and the winding course of the Fox River dominate this 1984 survey of the borderlands between Marquette and Green Lake counties. The river exhibits complex hydrology through Oxbow Bend, while the adjacent Mill Race and numerous sandpits near Princeton indicate the area's historical reliance on both water power and geological extraction. Settlement patterns are concentrated in the northeast at Princeton and scattered throughout the township of Mecan, where local life is anchored by landmarks like Immanuel Ch and Townhall.

The landscape is crisscrossed by family-named routes such as Losinski Road and Krahn Rd, alongside evidence of older transport networks like the Chicago and North Western Railroad Grade. Smaller water bodies like White L and the Mecan River feed into the larger system, supporting a mix of agricultural land and recreational features including a Campground and Trailer Park near the lake's northern shore.
