There is a group of fine lakes in the western part of this county, and several others in different parts of the county as follows:

Crooked Lake-on Bark river one mile west of Nemahbin Lake; not represented on the plats of public surveys.

Gold Lake (Wisauwa) on the line between Jefferson and Milwaukee counties, it discharges its waters through a small stream into Bark river. It is three miles around, one mile and a fourth long, and has an area of two hundred and seventy acres.

Kauchee Lake. On the Oconomowoc creek, next above the Oconomowoc Lake, having a small lake called Mouse Lake near its north east corner. It has a triangular shape, each side being about one and a half miles long, and a narrow bay extends half a mile from its southern extremity. It occupies nine hundred and fifty seven acres, and has a periphery of five miles and three quarters. At the outlet of this lake a dam has been built which has raised its waters above their original level.
