2022 Map of Sand Creek

About this map

The Red Cedar River carves a deep valley through the heart of this northwestern Wisconsin landscape, serving as the central geographic feature for the community of Sand Creek. This area, situated at the junction of Dunn, Barron, and Chippewa counties, reveals a rural settlement pattern defined by its watercourses and a network of county roads like Co Hwy I and Co Rd V. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds distributed across the townships, including Our Saviors Cem, Zion Cem, and Myran Cem, as well as the Dovre Lutheran Cem near the northern boundary. Smaller tributaries such as Cruikshank Cr, Tiller Cr, and Beaver Cr feed into the main river, while the Knutson Farms Airport provides a point of local aviation interest amidst the surrounding agricultural acreage and wooded bluffs.
