Welcome to our new 1911 Plat Map page... when I started with the Shawano GenWeb Project in 2001, our neighbour to the east Rita Neustifter, along with the folks at the FHC in Shawano, helped with the 1911 plat maps -- many thanks for their help with the images.  Since then, we redesigned the pages when we acquired clearer images from other sources, resulting in the images being larger and more easily navigated -- many thanks to RMC for his help in the new design, layout and scans.

This page contains "thumbnails" of the many photographs inside the 1911 Shawano Plat Map book -- and you thought it only contained MAPS!! There are some great older PHOTOGRAPHS you might not find anywhere else, along with ADVERTISEMENTS for local businesses. 

Here's a great find as well -- a photo apparently taken circa 1911 of the older Shawano pioneer settlers and the date they arrived.  Awesome picture and we've enhanced it to make it a better view.  Click on ANY thumbnail to show a larger view.  Thumbnails make it possible to keep this page as fast loading as we can, while showing all the pics.

Settlers on the adjacent picture include:
OLD SETTLERS RE-UNION, SHAWANO COUNTY

And, even if your family was not here in 1911, check the plat maps to see who owned the property in 1911 and MAYBE the residence/farm is photographed below.  Clearly, not all the homes/farms were photographed but you might just get lucky.
