Notes and References

1. The approximate counts are the best available. There are frequent additions to the listings, and occasional delistings, and the counts here may not be perfectly updated. Also, not counted are most boundary increase listings, which increase the area covered by a historic district and which carry a separate National Register reference number.
2. The following sites are listed in multiple counties: Apostle Islands Lighthouses (Bayfield and Ashland), Merrimac Ferry (Columbia and Sauk), North Washington Street Historic District (Watertown, Wisconsin) (Dodge and Jefferson), and Waupun Commercial Historic District (Dodge and Fond du Lac)
