1970 Map of Sherry

About this map

Mill Creek and Hemlock Creek drain this rural stretch of Wood County, where the transition from agriculture to small-town rail stops defines the landscape. The Soo Line and Chicago and North Western railroads anchor the northern and southern portions of the territory, supporting the growth of Auburndale and Milladore. Notable for its specific community landmarks, the map records the dual-named Blenker (Sherry Sta) and the original Sherry settlement, alongside several gravel pits and quarries that suggest local extraction industries.
