About this map

Glacial geology defines the terrain of this 2018 survey, which covers the border of Manitowoc and Sheboygan counties. The landscape is dotted with kettle lakes and wetlands, including Wilke Lake, Cedar Lake, and the Eaton Twin Lakes. The Sheboygan River and the Pigeon River flow through the southern and eastern portions of the quadrangle, respectively, supporting small rural clusters like Millhome and Ada. Small-scale agricultural patterns are evident in the dense network of local roads such as Lax Chapel Rd and Louis Corners Rd.

Genealogists will find a wealth of specific landmarks, including the Society of the Divine Savior Cem in St. Nazianz and the Holy Trinity Cem near School Hill. These community centers, along with hamlets like Louis Corners and Rockville, preserve the layout of settlement in this part of Wisconsin. The presence of Millhome Cr and several smaller ponds like Prueder Lake and Graf Lake highlights the water-rich nature of the regional topography.
