Survey Records Kept from Late 1800’s Forward

Olson Land Surveying builds on a tradition of over a century of quality surveying and platting services in Walworth County, Wisconsin. Owner and Lead Surveyor Douglas Olson has been conducting surveys in Walworth County since 1983. He initially purchased the business from then-owner Tom Jensen. The Jensen family carried a multi-generational surveying tradition back to the early 20th century.

Olson Surveying’s records are unlike any private surveyor you will find. In addition to historic records dating back to the early 1900’s, Olson Surveying also has field notes/journals dating back to the late 1800’s by official Walworth County surveyors. This gives Olson Surveying an unquestionable, historic precedence that is frequently called on by Walworth County government.
