Is that "Sanborn Company" certain to be the company we know as having
made maps?  Could it be, perhaps, a feed and seed business local to
Eagle River?

Does that map appear similar to other maps published in that part of the
world?  Do the various markings match up with any other maps?

Is the term "farm colony" a common one for Wisconsin?  Does the image
that appears in the title block originate somewhere else, or is it
unique to that map?
