Opening the official parcel viewer
Go first to the Winnebago County parcel viewer; it includes every tax parcel around Fox Crossing and Omro. With a lot near Fox Crossing, put in a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, and the viewer zooms to the match. For a parcel near Appleton, write down the parcel ID before closing the panel; every records desk in the county will want it.
Limits of the parcel data
Acreage on the record is an estimate; just a licensed surveyor can set the real boundary on land around Winneconne. For a tract near Menasha, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
On site with the map
