Description
Wisconsin was the first state in America to adopt a system of numbered highways in 1918. This map, published a few years later by W.W. Hixson & Company of Rockford, Illinois, reflects the groundbreaking innovation across Fond du Lac County.
Paved, gravel, and county highways (likely indicating a mix of surfaces) are identified according to the basic legend below the title block. Townships and sections are labeled and numbered, respectively; and geographic features, schools, churches, and cemeteries are also noted within the image.
