Our County, Our Story; Portage County, Wisconsin Our County Our Story PORTAGE COUNTY WISCONSIN BY Malcolm Rosholt Charles M. White Memorial Public LibrarJ PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS STEVENS POINT, \VISCONSIN 1959 Copyright, 1959, by the PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AT WORZALLA PUBLISHING COMPANY STEVENS POINT, WISCONSIN FOREWORD With the approach of the first frost in Portage County the leaves begin to fall from the white birch and the poplar trees. Shortly the basswood turns yellow and the elm tree takes on a reddish hue. The real glory of autumn begins in October when the maples, as if blushing in modesty, turn to gold and crimson, and the entire forest around is aflame with color set off against deeper shades of evergreens and newly-planted Christmas trees. To me this is the most beautiful season of the year. But it is not of her beauty only that I write, but of her colorful past, for Portage County is already rich in history and legend. And I share, in part, at least, the conviction of Margaret Fuller who wrote more than a century ago that "not one seed from the past" should be lost. Some may wonder why I include the names listed in the first tax rolls. It is part of my purpose to anchor these names in our history because, if for no other reas­ on, they were here first and there can never be another first. The spellings of names and places follow the spellings in the documents as far as legibility permits. Some no doubt are incorrect in the original entry, but the major­ ity were probably correct and since have changed, which makes the original entry a matter of historic significance. The text is documented throughout with the exc~p­ tion of the township and village records or references to these records. A start was made toward page docu­ mentation but became impractical when it was discov­ ered that many of these books have no page numbers. But easy reference may be made to these records in the office of the town or village clerk. In any work of local nature, reference is often made to present locations as they are related to the past. To avoid the constant use of the expression "on the present site of" I have used the word "modern" in its wider sense to mean any contemporary place or thing in being. I also refer to sites along the rivers as either on the left or right bank rather than to the directions from the riv­ er. To determine which is left and which is right, picture a fly fisherman in the middle of a stream. He always drops his line down stream which means that he faces down stream. Thus his left hand points to the left bank, his right hand to the right bank, no matter which way the river bends. The town of Linwood, for example, lies entirely on the right bank of the Wisconsin River. References are made to the "Sherman account" and the "Helgeson account." The former consists of many note-book size diaries kept by S. A. Sherman, only a few of which have been edited, now in the archives of the States Historical Society. The "Helgeson account" is a book written in Norwegian by Thor Helgeson called "Fra Indianernes Lande" (From the Land of the Indians) which I have translated and made excerpts from. The footnotes on the County Board of Supervisors and the County Commissioners Sessions also require a word of explanation. Several changes in the form of county government were made in the first three decades as between "commissioners" and "supervisors." As a re­ sult, the minutes of the proceedings of the County Com­ missioners Sessions and the Board of Supervisors both appear in Volume I and both run together. In fact, when the changes were made, the clerk was apt to for­ get himself in the first meeting and use the old designa­ tion under the new dispensation. But the page numbers run consistently. I wish to express my appreciation for pictures appear­ ing in the two sections of the book to the following: Mr. & Mrs. John Ksioszk, Mr. Howard Newby, Mrs. Emil Zimmer (deceased), Mrs. Alice Guyant, Mr. & Mrs. Jesse Grant, Mr. & Mrs. Dominic Bembenek, Mr. Leo Mallek, Mrs. George Ishenvood, Mr. & Mrs. Cecil Coel, Mr. & Mrs. George W. Allen, Mr. & Mrs. Ernest Rogers, Mr. & Mrs. Nils Hanson, the Rev. Joseph J. Schulist, Mr. & Mrs. Fred Zimmerman, Mr. Morris Carey, Mr. Julian Maxfield, Mr. & Mrs. Blaine Carlton, Mr. & Mrs. Ross Joy, Mr. Robert Swenson (lola), Mr. Walter Cy­ chosz, Lawrence Feltz, Esq., Mr. Harry Welty, Hardware Mutuals, Whiting-Plover Paper Company, the State Bank of Rosholt, and the Stevens Point Public Library. A special word of thanks is due Mrs. Win Rothman of Stevens Point for valuable corrections and suggestions in the preparation of the manuscript; to Miss Beulah Lar­ son of the Stevens Point Public Library for help in index­ ing; to Nelis R. Kampenga, librarian at the Wisconsin State College, for help in bibliography and materials; and to Alex Wallace for delightful afternoons of poetry and stories along the banks of the Little Eau Pleine. Finally, I wish to thank the members of the Portage Coun­ ty Board of Supervisors, whose foresight and understand­ ing made all this possible. Malcolm Rosholt Rosholt, Wis.

This is Green Bay where Jean Nicolet landed in 1634, some 14 years after the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock, and 27 years after the first colony of Europeans was established at Jamestown. Twenty years after Nico­ let arrived, the first fur traders came to survey the area around Green Bay with a view to establishing trading posts and making friends with the Indians. In the century that followed, the French,

  • A Perspective on Medieval Perception of Norwegian Church Art 53
    A perspective on Abstract This paper discusses the broad use of imitation techniques to give the impression of medieval perception of precious materials in Norwegian religious sacred art, with special attention to polychrome wooden objects Norwegian church art from the thirteenth century. The question of how ictive objects made out of wood, covered with chalk ground, metal foil and paint were accepted as key works of art in religious devotion is examined. What Kaja Kollandsrud the objects intended to emulate and how they could compete with precious objects will be discussed. Supporting evidence is ofered from the preserved sacred polychrome sculpture and panel paintings in Norway from the period. What makes an imitation successful is discussed in terms of the factors that contribute to the intended illusion. This is argued in relation to the attitudes towards display of such objects at the time they were installed within the church, which takes them out of the modern constraining concept of art and material value. Introduction he use of painterly materials and techniques to imitate precious metals, stone, pearls, gems, high status textiles and fur is characteristic for the painted objects from the early Middle Ages and throughout the thirteenth century in Norway as elsewhere in Europe. he Church in this period appears to have had no qualms about the emulation of such costly and precious items, as skilled imitation was common practice. In the modern attitude towards imitations, they are generally considered to be cheaper versions of the original. Although the word ‘imitation’ might suggest inferiority in our minds, these polychrome works served as iconic objects in the interiors of medieval churches.1 here were however limits to the substitution of rare and valuable materials with more readily available and cheaper materials.

Peterson School of Forest Resources A state and transition approach was used to model and map fuelbed, fire hazard, and carbon change under different management and fire regimes for the Okanogan- Wenatchee National Forest in central Washington. Landscape metrics showed different patterns of change over time depending upon the metric considered and the fire and management regime modeled. Fuelbeds characteristic of older forest conditions became more common during the first ~100 years of simulation (coverage increased 5 – 20%), except in those locations where wet forests subject to stand-replacement fire occur (coverage decreased 6 – 12%).
