Book Description
Excerpt from History of Sheboygan County, Wisconsin, Vol. 1: Past and Present The complete history of Sheboygan county has not yet been written and the one who may have the temerity to undertake the task will find that his work has' all been cut out for him. Many obstacles are in the way of accomplishing what may be desired in this relation, foremost of which is the almost total absence of the early settlers and the great and irreparable loss of the county records, which were destroyed by fire in 1861. An at tempt has been made, however, to preserve for future generations and the next local historian, the salient facts now at hand and in so doing recourse has been had to the labors of others who have written of Sheboygan county as a wilderness and related incidents of its brave and hardy pioneer men and women. Atlases, and the History of Northern Wisconsin, have been drawn upon. Articles written by Horace Rublee, J. H. Denison, Colonel J. A. Watrous, L. K. Howe and others appear in this work. Mr. Howe treated of the newspapers of Sheboygan county, while the others covered the broad field of fifty years of the county's existence. To all who have in any way assisted in making this volume possible, the thanks of the com piler is most heartily tendered.
