1962 Map of Sun Prairie

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Maunesha River and Koshkonong Creek drainage basins define this 1960s landscape, illustrating the transition from agricultural prairie to growing village centers in eastern Dane County. Sun Prairie appears as a significant hub, anchored by the Chicago Milwaukee ST Paul And Pacific railroad, while smaller settlements like Cottage Grove and Deerfield are serviced by the Chicago And North Western line. The rural sections are densely marked with markers of early Wisconsin settlement, including the Deansville Marsh and numerous small-town landmarks.
