Thorp (town), Wisconsin

The unincorporated communities of Eadsville, Eidsvold, and Junction are located in the town as well as a portion of the City of Thorp.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 35.2 square miles (91.1 km2), all of it land.

The six mile square that would become the town of Thorp was first surveyed in the summer of 1847 by a crew working for the U.S. government.

Then in late 1849 another crew marked all the section corners in the township, walking through the woods and swamps, measuring with chain and compass.

There are two Streams running from North to South through the Eastern part, affording a good supply of water power.
