About this map

The settlement of Saxon serves as the focal point for this survey of Iron County, situated where the northern woods meet a complex network of waterways. The landscape is defined by the Potato River and its various tributaries, including Vaughn Cr, Lawrence Creek, and Freburg Cr. To the south, the terrain transitions into a more concentrated wetland and lake district, featuring Blueberry Marsh, Upson Lake, and Weber Lake.

Local history and genealogy interests are represented by several family-named roads and burial grounds, such as Greenwood Cem and Calvary Cem near the southern boundary. The map documents a rural infrastructure of well-established corridors like Old Hwy 10 and Co Hwy B, alongside more remote paths like Casey Sag Rd and Vogues Rd, which provide access to the dense interior forests and numerous creeks that drain the region toward Lake Superior.
