  • Captain Gilbert G. Knapp, 1798-1887
    “Biographical Sketch” Captain Gilbert G. Knapp (1798-1887) From Chatham, Barnstable Co., MA., to Port Gilbert, Racine Co., WI. [ Veteran of the War of 1812 • Ship’s Captain • “Ouisconsin” Pioneer • founder of “Port Gilbert” (Racine, WI.) • Land Speculator • Merchant • Wisconsin Politician ] Compiled & annotated by: Robert C. Kuhmann, of Delavan, Wisconsin, in May of 2013. CAPTAIN GILBERT KNAPP - The narrative of the settlement of Racine and of the territory united thereto, at the out start, possesses an unusual degree of interest, because of the character and deeds of him who is entitled to the honor of making the original claim to the land on which the city is built. Capt. Gilbert Knapp, who still lives to witness the success of his undertaking is worthy of the opening page in the history of this prosperous region. Capt. Knapp was born at Chatham, Cape Cod, Mass., December 3, 1798, and is the son of John and Sarah Smith-Knapp, who came of English stock, and settled at Horseneck1, Conn., early in the eighteenth century. John Knapp was a soldier in the Revolutionary war, and when peace was restored, became engaged in the interest peculiar to the region in which he lived. For several years, he commanded a merchant vessel, trading with European ports. The later years of his life were spent at Poughkeepsie, NY., where he carried on a successful mercantile business. The mother of Capt. Knapp was a daughter of Elijah Smith, an Englishman by birth, who located at Barnstable, Mass. A privateer, akin to the “Leo” In early life, Capt. Knapp received such educational training as the facilities of his native place afforded, and devoted special study to the science of navigation, in furtherance of his boyish love for the sea.

The records of the U.S. Govern­ ment Land Survey conducted in the 1830s provide information on the pre­ settlement vegetation. Likewise, the notes and letters of settlers and early residents speak of the plants they found here, or brought with them. We know less about the vegetation now growing in our cities. Urbanization results in major changes. Hills are lowered, depressions filled and hydrologic regimes altered. Forests are cut and fragmented, wet­ lands are drained, prairies are plowed and all that remains of the original veg­ etation is that set aside in parks or forgotten in small patches along railroads, streams and similar "waste spaces." Urbanization may also follow agriculture as the city expands, again with alteration of the land and vegetation.

  • The Wind Point Lighthouse Keeper
    The Wind Point Lighthouse Keeper Friends of the Wind Point Lighthouse Fall 2016 www.windpointlighthouse.com From the President Hello Friends, What a busy board. Since the last newsletter, we have been contacting museums throughout the area to make our artifacts available to the public. It was so sad to remove them from their former home in a rush so the building that we lovingly restored can sit empty. Hopefully, the Village has future plans for the Foghorn house so they don't have a repeat of it falling into disrepair. In addition, we have had some board personnel changes: Karen Braun has left our board due to increased family responsibilities; Jim Erven left our board to dedicate himself to more pressing volunteer responsibilities. We are indebted to both of these awesome individuals for their help and hard work over their years of service. Sad as it is to say good-bye, we are honored to have three new awesome individuals join our board...Ken and Barb Wardius (yes! you have seen their names before! They are the famous lighthouse book authors and enthusiasts!), as well as Ron Coutts (the former supervisor of Caledonia and Real Racine representative!!) Pretty impressive! So here we are, the Friends of the Wind Point Lighthouse, losing the ability to do business on the grounds of the lighthouse. What's a hard working board to do? The Village has made it known that they would prefer to do the tower climbs, garden projects and brick garden on their own. How about that Village of Wind Point? They seem to be doing alright without us.
