Walsh is an unincorporated community located in the town of Porterfield, in Marinette County, Wisconsin, United States.[1][2]
The community was known as Rawnsville in the nineteenth century, named for the family of Jacob Rawn (1820–1877; surname earlier spelled Rein, Raan, or Rhyne[3]), which settled in the area. A post office was established in Rawnsville in the nineteenth century.[4] The name was changed to Walsh on 5 July 1902.[5]
