1962 Map of Yellowstone Lake

About this map

Yellowstone Lake and its surrounding conservation area anchor this southwestern Wisconsin landscape, where the borders of Iowa and Lafayette counties meet. The map reveals a transition from the structured village layout of Hollandale in the north to the winding course of the Pecatonica River and Dougherty Creek. Local history is deeply embedded in the rural road network, which connects numerous traditional landmarks including St Michaels Ch, Woodlawn Sch, and Calvary Cem. Evidence of the region's evolving infrastructure is visible in the prominent Old Railroad Grade and Railroad Grade that snake through the valleys near Horseshoe Bend. This 1962 survey documentation provides an exceptionally clear view of property lines and field boundaries, marked by fine red dashed lines, offering genealogists and land researchers a precise look at the mid-century agricultural footprint of Moscow and Waldwick townships.
