About this map

The Black River snakes through the center of this landscape, defining a valley floor punctuated by distinct coulees and named bluffs. Near the southern edge of the quadrangle, Stevenstown sits as a local hub at the confluence of Sour Creek and Fleming Creek. The topography is marked by a series of family-named landmarks and drainages, including Toppen Coulee and Michelson Coulee, which suggest a long-standing agricultural and family-centered settlement pattern typical of western Wisconsin.

Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved on this sheet, including Glasgow Cemetery, Evergreen Cemetery, and Sacia Cemetery. The river corridor itself features a complex network of backwaters and side channels, most notably at Horseshoe Lake. Infrastructure such as the Oines H1807 Dam on the western edge and various county highways like County Hwy VV provide evidence of modern water management and the rural transportation network connecting Lewis Valley to the surrounding hills like Peacock Hill and Cox Hill.
