Last updated September 22, 2007 History From the Portait and Biographical Album of Green Lake, Marquette and Waushara Counties, Wisconsin - Acme Publishing Co. 1890 (Town of Oasis) Oasis is of the northern tier of towns and the second from the western border of the county. It is bounded on the north by Portage County, on the east by the town of Rose, on the south by the town of Deerfield, on the west by the town of Plainfield. Oasis is level and adapted to farming. There are no important streams in the town but there are within its limits several small bodies of water scarcely large enough to be dignified by the name of lakes. William Lord settled in this town about 1849, and kept a tavern. Other settlers and men of mark were N.K. Currier, I.C. Herrick, R.R. Crowe, Thomas Hyde. (Hamlet of Oasis) This is a post hamlet of about fifty population and the only post-office in this town. It is twelve miles northwest of Wautoma and six miles south-east of Plainfield, the nearest railroad station. __________________________ Questions, suggestions or additions please email.
