2022 Map of Waldwick

About this map

Waldwick and Fayette anchor this landscape along the border of Iowa and Lafayette counties, where the Yellowstone River and its various tributaries have carved a network of valleys through the terrain. The map reveals a rural economy structured around a grid of county roads and family-named routes such as Ferrell Rd and Gilbertson Rd. Local history and genealogy are preserved in several burial grounds, including Graceland Cem near the river and Willow Springs Cem to the southwest. The presence of Fort Defiance Rd reflects the area's historical transportation corridors, while the numerous branches like Steiner Br and Canon Cr highlight the intricate drainage patterns that have long dictated the placement of farms and small settlements in this portion of Wisconsin.
