Sketch Showing the Early Mormon Settlement Voree Near Burlington, Wis. | Map or Atlas | Wisconsin Historical Society
This manuscript blueprint shows buildings with the names of their owners, tabernacle, location "where Strang found plates" and "house where Strang died," a tithing post, tavern, school house, a stone quarry, and cemetery. The top and right side of the map are bordered by two intersecting highways; the top highway is labeled 'no.20,' the right highway not labeled, but a dashed line indicates that the left side is Walworth County while the right is Racine county. White River runs from the top right at a diagonal towards the bottom left. A dam is located on the river next to the stone quarry.
