1955 Map of Seymour

About this map

The boundary between Shawano and OutagamIE counties divides a landscape of dairy country and rural school districts during the mid-1950s. The bustling hubs of Seymour and Pulaski anchor the region, connected by the Chicago and North Western and Green Bay and Western railroads. A dense network of local education is visible, though many sites like Sohr Sch, Mapleview Sch, and Oak Leaf Sch are already marked as abandoned, signaling a shift toward consolidated districts like the Union High Sch. Small settlements such as Nichols, Bonduel, and Hofa Park dot the terrain, while the winding courses of the Shioc River and Pensaukee River drain the lowlands. Local industry is represented by numerous Gravel Pits and a Quarry near Laney, essential for the upkeep of the developing county road system.
