About this map

The Black River winds through this West Central Wisconsin landscape, defining a wide, marshy corridor at the convergence of La Crosse, Jackson, and Trempealeau Counties. The settlement of Stevenstown sits south of the river, positioned where Fleming Creek and Sour Cr emerge from a series of deep coulees. This terrain is characterized by steep ridges and narrow valleys, many bearing the names of early settler families, such as Steensen Coulee, Moe Coulee, and Roberts Coulee.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds established on these high points, including Glasgow Cem, Evergreen Cem, and Sacla Cem. The map illustrates the persistent rural character of the area, where the road network follows the natural drainage of features like Lewis Valley and Peacock Valley. Landmarks like Pine Knob and Cox Hill overlook the river bottomlands, where Horseshoe Lake remains as a distinct oxbow feature near the Jackson County line.
