About this map

Agricultural lands and intersecting rail lines define this Central Wisconsin landscape during the 1970s. The village of Auburndale anchors the northwestern corner, while the small settlements of Sherry and Blenker (Sherry Sta) serve as local hubs for the surrounding farming community. The area is crisscrossed by two major rail routes: the Soo Line running east-west through the northern section and the Chicago and North Western cutting through the southwest.

Waterways like Mill Creek and Hemlock Creek drain the terrain, providing natural landmarks among the gridded township roads of Arpin and Sherry. Genealogical interests are served by the presence of the Fairview Cem and Reformed Cem, along with the Reformed Ch. Evidence of local industry appears in several scattered Quarry and Gravel Pit locations, while the local civic life is represented by the Community Hall.
