1962 Map of Waldwick

About this map

Waldwick and Fayette serve as central points in this early 1960s survey of the Iowa and Lafayette county line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Otter Creek and the Yellowstone River, with the Yellowstone Conservation Area appearing in the southeastern corner. This map provides a detailed view of a rural Wisconsin community tied to its land, showing numerous Quarries that speak to the local geology and industry. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific landmarks, including the Pleasant View Ch, Broad View Sch, and several family-named burial grounds like the Jackson Cem and Bethel Cem. The transition from the town of Mineral Point into Willow Springs is clearly marked by property lines and township boundaries, capturing the area just before modern agricultural consolidation shifted the local character.
