Sanborn map location 710 Oak Street He conducted a Tin Shop and Hardware Store on Oak as early as 1857 where D. S. Holcombe had a livery and feed barn in 1895. This was probably in the 600 Block. Afterwards he was in partnership with another gentleman and the firm was near where C. E. Ryan had his jewelry store in 1895. He eventually met with financial failure and lost his property. In 1857, H. A. Peck & R. A. Orvis kept a Drug Store at approximately this address, probably moving from 133 Third Avenue. In 1861 Peck increased the depth of the building to 70 feet. It is believed that Peck was still here in 1864. In May of 1864, George H. Hall & H. T. Savage opened a clothing store formerly occupied by Peck & Orvis. In September of 1864, Mrs. J. Kennedy announced to the ladies of Baraboo and the vicinity that she had opened a Ladies Furnishing Store just north of Ryan’s Jewelry Store. In May of 1866, Doane & Barstow were busy remodeling the Oak Street circa 1903 building north of Ryan’s Jewelry Store. When completed they planned on stocking the store with dry goods and groceries.

    GEO BON OPEN SCIENCE CONFERENCE & ALL HANDS MEETING 2020 06–10 July 2020, 100 % VIRTUAL Book of Abstracts Keynote 1 IPBES: Science and evidence for biodiversity policy and action Anne Larigauderie Executive Secretary of IPBES This talk will start by a presentation of the achievements of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform for Biodiversity (IPBES) during its first work programme, starting with the release of its first assessment, on Pollinators, Pollination and Food Production in 2016, and culminating with the release of the first IPBES Global Assessment of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in 2019. The talk will highlights some of the findings of the IPBES Global Assessment, including trends in the contributions of nature to people over the past 50 years, direct and indirect causes of biodiversity loss, and progress against the Aichi Biodiversity Targets, and some of the Sustainable Development Goals, ending with options for action. The talk will then briefly present the new IPBES work programme up to 2030, and its three new topics, and end with considerations regarding GEO BON, and the need to establish an operational global observing system for biodiversity to support the implementation of the post 2020 Global Biodiversity Framework. 1 Keynote 2 Securing Critical Natural Capital: Science and Policy Frontiers for Essential Ecosystem Service Variables Rebecca Chaplin-Kramer Stanford University, USA As governments, business, and lending institutions are increasingly considering investments in natural capital as one strategy to meet their operational and development goals sustainably, the importance of accurate, accessible information on ecosystem services has never been greater. However, many ecosystem services are highly localized, requiring high-resolution and contextually specific information—which has hindered the delivery of this information at the pace and scale at which it is needed.
