1955 Map of Webb Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Namekagon River and the St Croix River converge in this mid-century survey of Northwest Wisconsin, defining a landscape of glacial kettle lakes and dense marshland. The settlement pattern reflects the transition from early timbering and pioneer farming toward a forest-management economy, marked by the presence of the Dairyland Lookout Tower and Riverside Lookout Tower. Local life is anchored at crossroads like Cozy Corner and Woodland Corner, while the northern township of Dairyland features established community markers including Covenant Ch and the Dairyland Cem. Genealogists may find particular value in the dispersed rural sites like Swiss Cem and the Webb Lake Sch (Abandoned), which suggest the shifting populations of townships like Blaine and Swiss as small school districts consolidated and farmsteads were reclaimed by the woodland.
