Daly and Sampson's Addition A subdivision of the W side of Wisconsin Rapids. The plat's survey was certified on Oct 5,1891; the plat, which was recorded on March 18,1892, was take out by John Daly, Henry Sampson, and J D Witter, local residents. Daly PO A PO located apparently in or nearsec 32,T21N,R3E (Remington Township). The original name , Smith's Mill PO, was changed to Daly PO on Dec 29,1882. Smith's Mill PO was located in sec 6,T21N,R3E,Juneau Co, on the Wisconsin Valley RR; CC Smith, the postmaster, had a sawmill in this vicinity. The PO was discontinued on Oct 31, 1899. Named for a local businessman: see Daly Daly's Replat A subdivision of the E side of Wisconsin Rapids, including lots 4,17,19 and that part of 18 which lies north of Wisconsin Street in block no 3 of fractional lot 1, sec 17,T22N, R6E, Sargent's Plat of the city of Grand Rapids. The plat, which was surveyed on April 4-5, 1895, and recorded on May 9,1905, was taken out by John Daly, a local resident. Daley's Re-plat is a misspelling of the name. Dawes Creek A trubutary of Hemlock Cr. It rises in secs 33 and 34, Arpin Township, SE of Powers Bluff, and flows S and SW through Hansen Township, joining Hemlock Cr in NE sec 33. It was evidently named after the Dawes family. J E Dawes, a famer, reportedly came to Wood Co in 1850. A Wood Co map of 1878 indicates that he owned land at that time in sec 24, Wood Township; The map also shows that W C Dawes owned land in sec 24 and that J C Dawes owned land in sec 25. This land (which is about four miles from the creek) continued in the family's possession thruogh 1928, and members of the family are shown as owners of land in S sec 24 on Mara. 1957. Dawesville A rural community in the vicinity of secs 24 and 25, Wood Thownship. Gayn, 1878 indicates that three different members of the family owned land in these sections at this early date: J E Dawes, W C Dawes and J C Dawes> the name is used to head a local news column in Pilot, Nev 5, 1897. See also the reference to the Dawesville Rd in Pilot , Aug 1,1902 Dexter Township A township first established on March 10, 1858, including almost the entire western half of Wood Co. On March 23, 1872, a new town of Dexter was established, including only T22N, R2E; this was vacated on April 25,1884. A third town of Dexter, including present Dexter and Hiles townships, was established on Feb 13,1901, and reduced to the present boundaries of T22N, R3E on Nov 15, 1901, effective in April, 1902; at this time the name was changed to New Dexter Township: it was changed back to Dexter Township on May 6,1902. According to tradition , Dexterville was named by George Hiles after Dexter, his balky, white mule. The township name would appear to come from the same source. However, it is noteworthy that Hiles' birthplace, Farmingham, Mich, is only about thirty miles from the village of Dexter, Mich-platted in 1830-and Dexter Township, which held its first town meeting on May 28, 1827. Hence, it is possible that the Wood Co Township is named for either of these places, and that Dexterville PO-established a few months after Dexter Township was organized- is actually named for the township. Dexterville A cluster of houses and a gasoline-station-tavern in secs 14 and 23, Dexter Township, around the intersection of state highways 54,and 80;formerly a much larger community. It was settles in Oct 1850, by Geroge Hiles, who with H Searles established a lumber mill there in 1851. It grew up around this and other mills, reaching its largest size in the 1880's and early 1890's, and declining when the timber supply gave out. Named after Dexterville PO?

Crescent School A school (No.1) in SE sec 35, Arpin Township, on co trunk P. Origin unknown. Crooked Reef Rapids (also Crooked Rift and Crooked Drive Rapids) A former rapids on the Wisconsin R in sec 35 or 36, T23N,R6E, at Biron. Originally called Crooked Rift, "rift" meaning "the rapids or falls caused by an obstruction in a stream." In the later name the more familiar "reef" has been substituted for "rift", and "rapids" has been added to supply the necessary generic term. Also called Crooked Drive Rapids. Descriptive. Cruikshank's Plat The first plat of the settlement of Grand Rapids, now the E side of Wisconsin Rapids. The plat, which was surveyed on Nov 27,29 and 30,1847, by B G Hurlburt, and recorded on Dec 7, 1847, was taken out by John J Cruikshank, a local resident. It included an area N of the present downtown shopping center in Wisconsin Rapids. Curtis District A nonce form coined in Pilot for the area around F J Curtis;s farm in S sec 3, Wood Township, along the road leading N from Pittsville. Readers of the newspaper immediately protested that they called their community Morrisville in honor of W MOrris, one of the first settlers there. Dairy Belt School A school in Nw sec 27, Richfield Township, at the intersection of co trunks A and N. The fact that there are many dairy farms in the area may explain the name. Daly A former station on the Milwaukee Road in sec 32,T21N,R3E (Remington Township), originally called Balch's Ranch. Since the Milwaukee Road tracks lie across sec 32 rather than 31, Jones errs in locating the station in sec 31. Daly was named for a local businessman, part-owner of a lumber mill in the vicinity. Discontinued in 1934 along with the entire branch line from Tomah, Monroe Co to Babcock.

Community Plat A subdivision of Blenker. The plat was surveyed on Nov 24,1920, and recorded on Nov 17,1921.

The park was removed to make way for the bridge at Jackson St. Consolidated Water Power Company's Addition A subdivision of the E side of Wisconsin Rapids.

It rises in secs 15 and 16, T21N,R4E (Cranmoor Township), and flows SW, leaving the county in sec 32, T21N,R4E(Port Edwards Township) and joining the Yellow R in Juneau Co. The name first appears on Morse 1855. Called Cranberry Cr Drain in Ogle 1909 and Brock 1928. Cranberry Street The original name of West Grand Av in Wisconsin Rapids. So called after the wild cranberries which once grew at present 3rd and West Grand avenues. As a result of the consolidation of Centralia and Grand Rapids in 1900, the street was renamed Grand AVe to correspond with Grand Ave in the E side of the city. Cranmoor A former shipping point for cranberries on the Milwaukee Road in W sec 9, 21N,R4E (Cranmoor Township), near the intersection of co trunks D and J; now the neighboring rual community.
