  • Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research
    Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research General Topic Ideas for Students Interested in Exploring the History of Our State National History Day in Wisconsin Updated: Summer 2010 1 A Warning for All Researchers! What follows is a very GENERAL list of topic ideas for you to consider. This list is by no means complete or exhaustive of Wisconsin history. There are many, many more fantastic topics to consider! These topics are NOT THEME SPECIFIC. You will need to take a closer look at each potential topic and consider how it fits with the annual theme for NHD. This is a general list. All the topics listed in this book WILL NOT fit the annual theme. Selecting a topic from this list does not guarantee a WINNING PROJECT. Selecting a topic is just the first step. You will need to follow through with good research, a strong argument, and a clear presentation. Selecting a topic from this list isn’t the final step. Many of these topics need to be further NARROWED in order for them to be a suitable National History Day project. Why Choose a Wisconsin Topic? The National History Day program doesn’t have any requirements or give you any advantage in choosing a Wisconsin topic. Wisconsin history, however, is full of great ideas for your History Day project. It is easy to overlook the history right around us, but your National History Day project can help you to find these amazing local stories that helped shape your history! Armed with local resources and strong research, you can become an authority on your topic and your project could be more competitive than a topic that many other students across the state or nation could choose.

  • November 2020 POLITICAL SHENANIGANS in HISTORIC WISCONSIN
    Volume 28 Issue 3 Jackson Historical Society November 2020 POLITICAL SHENANIGANS IN HISTORIC WISCONSIN After Wisconsin became a territory in 1836 and a State in 1848, development continued in earnest. The state had functioned for a num- ber of years with a kind of split personality. The southwest part of the state was industrialized around lead mining, with people arriving up the Mississippi River from the south, seeking their fortune. Cornish immi- grants arrived to work the underground lead mines, giving the state it’s future nickname, Badger. Meanwhile, immigrants arriving in the Wisconsin Territory by ship often settled around the various Lake Michigan ports as that was where Jackson Historical Society Museum commerce was concentrated and many of the jobs were.

  • The Menomonee Valley: a Historical Overview
    The Menomonee Valley: A Historical Overview by John Gurda The Menomonee Valley has been one of Milwaukee’s distinguishing features since long before the dawn of urban time. Four miles long and a half-mile wide, it was formed by meltwater during the retreat of the last continental glacier, which departed Wisconsin roughly 10,000 years ago. Although the Valley’s topography varied from year to year and even from season to season, it was generally a sprawling expanse of open water punctuated by beds of wild rice and dense mats of cattails, rushes, and reeds. Writing in 1875, pioneer historian James Buck described the Valley east of Fifth Street as “a wild rice swamp, covered with water from two to six feet in depth; in fact an impassable marsh.” The Valley was not impassable to native canoes. It was, in fact, a storehouse of resources that attracted human settlement centuries before anyone contemplated a city. The Menomonee River provided a canoe route from Lake Michigan to the interior, but far more important were the plants and animals it supported. Wild rice was a critically important food source for the procession of tribes who made their homes in the area. (The name “Menomonee” itself is derived from the word for wild rice.) Wetland plants provided the raw materials for baskets, mats, and shelters. Fish and waterfowl were abundant. James Buck penned a verdant description of the Valley in the 1830s: “All the marsh proper … would, in the Spring, be literally alive with fish that came in from the lake…. And the number of ducks that covered the marsh was beyond all computation.

In a series of slow dissolves, the horizon east of South Shore Park comes alive with the colors of sunrise. As sun clears the horizon, camera slows to real time and pulls back to show the urban lakefront. Host starts talking and walks into the frame. It starts here, of course, where the lake meets the land. Our story dawns beside one of the largest bodies of fresh water on earth. Today Lake Michigan is weather and drinking water, a place to fish and a place to sail, but it’s much more than that. Lake Michigan is why Milwaukee’s here. It was on this shore of an inland sea, where a deep river enters a broad bay, that a city was born. Pan north across bay to downtown and hold. Wave sounds continue. It would be a city known for beer and bubblers, for smokestacks and steeples, for Socialist mayors and major industries. But that’s not how Milwaukee began. Wave sounds up. Indian drumbeats begin. As each wave breaks, a layer of urban features is washed away, and the scene morphs to an early-morning view of a broad beach bordered by forest in deep winter.

The area surveyed and inventoried encompassed approximately 495 acres. The Brewers' Hill area consists of a variety of land uses, but is most easily described as consisting of the North Third Street commercial corridor, the industrial district along the north bank of the Milwaukee River, and resi­ dential areas closely tied to those two districts. The area is bounded by North Sixth Street on the east, McKinley Avenue on the south, the Milwaukee River on the southwest, and North Avenue on the north. A sub-area also included in the study extends north from North Avenue to East Center Street, and from North Second Street on the east to North First Street on the west.
