2018 Map of Rush Lake

About this map

Rush Lake dominates this portion of Winnebago County, surrounded by a complex network of wetlands and small agricultural settlements. The eastern shore is particularly well-defined by the community of Wilmoore Heights and the distinctive inlets of Green Bay and Gleason Bay. To the northeast, Waukau sits along the banks of Waukau Cr, while the hamlet of Koro marks the crossroads to the west. This landscape is of significant value to genealogists and local historians, as it preserves the locations of numerous family-named cemeteries including Eureka Cem, Nepeuskun Cem, Krebs Cem, and Loper Cem. The map illustrates a rural Wisconsin environment where the drainage patterns of Henderson Cr and Eightmile Cr dictate the placement of local roads like Koro Rd and Co RD V, showing the long-standing relationship between the marshy terrain and human habitation.
