2010 Map of Taylor

About this map

Taylor and Sechlerville anchor this agricultural landscape in Jackson County, where the driftless-style terrain is defined by numerous drainage valleys locally known as coulees. The Trempealeau River winds through the northwestern corner, joined by a network of tributaries including Pine Creek, French Creek, and Skutley Creek. This 2010 survey highlights a significant concentration of rural burial grounds, such as Sechlerville Cemetery, Sherwood Cemetery, and Woodlawn Cemetery, which provide essential touchstones for genealogical research in this part of Wisconsin. The presence of Halverson Landing Field near Skutley Coulee suggests the continued importance of private aviation in managing these large rural tracts. Farther south, the small settlement of Disco sits at a crossroads, illustrating the enduring township grid system and the way localized water features like Lowe Creek Pond have shaped the placement of roads and farmsteads.
