About this map

The village of Wyocena sits at the northern edge of this landscape, centered around the industrial and recreational nexus of Wyona Lake and the Wyocena Dam. The surrounding terrain in Columbia County is defined by its complex hydrology, with the Middle Branch Duck Creek and Rocky Run weaving through a patchwork of agricultural lands and natural preserves. Further south, the settlement of Lowville and the expansive Mud Lake characterize a more rural, open geography.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of three distinct burial sites: the Rocky Run Catholic Cemetery, Rocky Run Protestant Cemetery, and Lowville Cemetery. The map also captures specialized land uses, from the aviation history at Curtis Landing Strip and Prescott Field to the conservation efforts at the Poynette State Game Farm. This detail provides a clear look at how water management and traditional community centers have shaped this central Wisconsin region.
