Familiar names are Vaughan (farm by river), Neitzel, Daly, Webb, Giese, Spafford, Sampson, Snyder, Lutz, Brahmstadt, Herschleb, Hill, Wittrock, Hamm, McGrath. Four Mile Creek shown became Nepco Lake where it crosses Milwaukee Ave., now 8th Street/Highway 13. Two Mile school, surrounded by Stainbrook property, was a “state-graded” or country school when Uncle Dave attended in the 1950s. Most of the area in 1896 was undeveloped farm or woodland. 8 Engel RCMVIII 1. 2. 3. Subdivided, 1948 In 1945-46 the Don Engel family inhabited a second-floor apartment at551 1/2 11th Ave. N. while Don was building the small concrete block house (#1) on Clyde Avenue, originally meant to become a garage. In 1950, having sold the block house, they moved further west on Clyde, across Lincoln Street (#2). The temporary home, owned by Stanley Trelka of Junction City, Wis., included a yard susceptible to flooding, an outhouse and inside, an oil burner known for its signature “poof poof” sound. At the Two Mile house (#3), located in the Luedtke plat, sons Gary and Ken were born. After Don died in 1991, Arline (Sally) would live in the residence until her death in 1999, after which the house was sold. The Village of Port Edwards has expanded into the area surrounding Nepco Lake, on a stream here called “Buena Vista,” also known as “Four Mile Creek.” At the time of this map, John Murgatroyd had not yet bought the Ridges golf course property. 9 RCMVIII Engel Cub Scout with Pal, 1953 10 Engel RCMVIII Penultimate Memoirs If you know how Milladore got its name, you Then there are the books.

This volume comprises papers and addresses presented before this Society during the last four years, from September, 1904, and biographic memorials of its members who have died during the years 1905 to 1908. Besides the addresses here published, several others have been presented in the meetings of the Society, which are otherwise published, wholly or in part, or are expected later to form parts of more extended publications, as follows. Professor William W. Folwell, in the Council Meeting on May 14, 1906, read a paper entitled “A New View of the Sioux Treaties of 1851”; and in the Annual Meeting of the Society on January 13, 1908, he presented an address, “The Minnesota Constitutional Conventions of 1857.” These addresses are partially embodied in his admirable concise history, “Minnesota, the North Star State,” published in October, 1908, by the Houghton Mifflin Company as a volume of 382 pages in their series of American Commonwealths.
