About this map

The Eau Claire River carves a winding path through this central Wisconsin landscape, defining the boundaries and development of Easton and Ringle townships. At the time of this 1982 edition, the Chicago and North Western railroad remains a primary transit artery, passing directly through the community of Ringle near Clay Pond. The map reveals a rural structure centered on small crossroads and local institutions, evidenced by the presence of the St Johns Sch and New Hope Ch.

Resource extraction is clearly visible through numerous Gravel Pit sites scattered along the river valley and transport corridors like Mole Brook Road. Cultural landmarks such as the Forestville Cem and Riverside Sch provide valuable anchor points for genealogists tracking family history in Marathon County. The terrain is further defined by its hydrology, from the northern reaches of Big Sandy Creek to the smaller Mole Brook feeding the river system.
