About this map

Aztalan State Park and the surrounding archaeological landscape sit along the winding Crawfish River, serving as a focal point for this late-1950s survey of Jefferson County. The river network, including the Rock River and Beaverdam River, dictates the placement of long-standing communities like Milford, Hubbleton, and Johnson Creek. The era's infrastructure is prominently displayed through the intersection of the Chicago Milwaukee ST Paul And Pacific and the Chicago And North Western railroads, which facilitated the region's agricultural and industrial movement. Local life is documented through numerous rural institutions, such as St Wenceslaus Ch, Mamre Ch, and a dense network of one-room schoolhouses like Plainview Sch and Hyer Sch. On the shores of Rock Lake, the city of Lake Mills features Lakeside Park and a Fish Hatchery, while further south, the city of Jefferson shows its development around the Fairground and Jefferson Junction.
