About this map

Redgranite and the village of Lohrville center this portrait of Waushara County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of wetlands and small glacial lakes. The village centers are situated near the headwaters of Willow Cr, a stream that feeds into the Auroraville Millpond and Mill Pond to the east. These water bodies, along with the cluster of Pearl Lake, Middle Lake, and Taylor Lake in the northwest, speak to the area's geological character and long-standing recreation and milling history.

Evidence of local community life is preserved through landmarks like Saint Marks Cem and Pine Grove Cem, as well as the uniquely named Buzzards Roost Airport. The grid of county roads, including Co Rd EE and Chicago Rd, connects these residential pockets with the surrounding marshes and the larger basin of Jordan Lake in the southeast. This modern survey captures the enduring settlement patterns established during Wisconsin's earlier developmental years.
