The Reporter
The Reporter Volume 16 Issue 4 The Newsletter of the Waupaca Historical Society Fall 2012 WHS Board of Directors: Dennis Lear, President; Mike Kirk, Vice President; Betty Stewart, Secretary; Bob Kessler, Treasurer, Jerry Salan, Tracy Behrendt, Gerald Chappell, Glenda Rhodes, Deb Fenske, David Trombla, Joyce Woldt, Don Writt, and Marge Writt WHS Director: Julie Hintz Hutchinson House Museum Curator: Barbara Fay Wiese The Book Festival at the Holly Center - A Special Day Sponsored by the Waupaca Historical Society for participation in the 2012 Waupaca Book Festival, architectural historian Wendell Nelson arrived at the Waupaca Holly History and Genealogical Center around ten o’clock Saturday October 13, 2012, and set up for his PowerPoint presentation on classic area house styles in the downstairs Cynthia Holly Room. As members of the Waupaca Historical Society have long appreciated, the Cynthia Holly Room is a fine place for a speaker to present as it seats about 50 people, has comfortable chairs in a theater arrangement (or if desired a table arrangement), and is not so large as to need a microphone. Following an introduction by Jerry Chappell, Nelson’s presentation readily captured the attention and advanced the knowledge of over 30 Book Festival attendees who were able to closely study his slides on ten styles of house architecture. Wendell showed about three examples of each style as he pointed out critical identifying and differentiating features of homes, including Italianate, Greek Revival, Victorian Eclectic, Gambrel-roofed, Tower, Square, Cement Block, and Stucco architecture. Afterward, a number of copies of Wendell’s classic 1983 book Houses That Grew were sold. -

The guide was developed to meet provisions of the 1989 Wisconsin Act 31 that required social studies curriculum to include instruction on treaty rights and tribal sovereignty. The first three sections are self-contained teaching sections for elementary, middle, and higil school students that begin with a brief overview of Wisconsin Indian cultures, political structures, and relationships to the environment. Each section includes nine learning activities that address the nature of the federal-Indian relationship up to the end of the treaty-making era, examine reservations established for Wisconsin Indians and the status of nonreservation Indians, consider the relationship of acculturation to treaty rights, and explore the reaffirmation of treaty rights and the status of Wisconsin Indian peoples today. -

Chief Oshkosh Monument—Erected in 1911 in Honor of the Menominee
Chief Oshkosh Monument—erected in 1911 in honor of the Menominee Tribe Chief Chief Oshkosh and Menominee Nation History The word Menominee is derived from the Ojibwe language meaning “wild rice people”. They are a federally recognized nation of Native Americans, with a 354 square mile reservation in Wisconsin. Their historic territory originally included an estimated 10 million acres in present-day Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The tribe currently has about 8,700 members. Chief Oshkosh served the tribe from 1827 until his death on August 29, 1858. Living to the age of 63 years. The word Oshkosh means “Claw”. Around the age of 15, he was placed under the guidance of Chief Tomah, ultimately becoming his successor. The Negotiation Skills of Chief Oshkosh Help Secure the Tribe’s Original Lands The US government made an effort to convert the Menominee Tribe to an agrarian society, but the tribes were more interested in logging for their economic base. The tribe is well known for their early history and modern day commitment to forestry management and sustainability. Chief Oshkosh understood the importance of the Tribe’s lands located on the west side of Lake Winnebago with access to the Fox River. The Fox River flows into the Wolf River providing easy access to the forests the Menominee Tribe would depend on for logging. The Menominee became known for the early development of forestry management practices used to sustain the forests they depended upon for their livelihoods. Chief Oshkosh fought hard to negotiate for these lands. His skills in persuasion played an integral role in the successful negotiation of several treaties. -
