1949 Map of Webb Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The St Croix River and Namekagon River converge in this northern Wisconsin landscape, weaving through a dense network of glacial lakes and wetlands just after World War II. The settlement at Dairyland and the crossroads at Cozy Corners anchor a rural community defined by its remote schools and small family landmarks. Local education was decentralized, with facilities such as Engine Hill Sch, Carpenter School, and Webb Lake Sch serving the scattered population. Religious and civic life is marked by the Covenant Church and several small burial grounds, including Hillcrest Cem and Swiss Cem. An Emergency Landing Field south of the Namekagon provides a unique mid-century aviation detail, while family names are preserved through features like McElroy L, Moores Farm Cr, and Thatcher L.
