1948 Map of Weyerhauser

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Minneapolis St Paul and Sault Ste Marie railroad serves as the primary artery for northern Wisconsin commerce in this late 1940s landscape, connecting the bustling villages of Weyerhauser, Bruce, and Apollonia. This map reveals a dense network of one-room schoolhouses such as Pleasant Hill Sch, Soft Maple Sch, and Amacoy Sch, which served the scattered farming communities of Wilkinson and Atlanta townships. The geography is defined by an intricate glacial lake system, featuring major water bodies like Potato Lake and the complex Chain Lake network near the southern border of Rusk Co and Chippewa Co. A rare cultural landmark, the Indian Cem, is noted near Island lake, while the Stang Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the heavily wooded terrain of the Stubbs and Rusk districts.
