2018 Map of Wittenberg

About this map

Wittenberg serves as the primary hub in this Shawano County landscape, where the Middle Branch Embarrass River and S Br Embarrass River converge amidst a dense network of country roads. The map reveals the spatial relationship between Wittenberg and smaller neighboring settlements like Eland to the north and Elderon to the southwest. Genealogists and local historians can locate several burial grounds preserved across the townships, including the John Stacy Memorial Cem, Holy Family Cem, and Forest Home Cem. The terrain is defined by its glacial hydrology, featuring numerous named waterways such as Spranger Cr and Larsen Cr, along with notable basins like Lilly Lake and Wilson Lake. This contemporary survey documents the enduring road grid and drainage patterns that have shaped Central Wisconsin agriculture and settlement for generations.
