Our generation, which gradually is being depleted, has memories and experiences which may be of interest to future generations. We felt that what we know of Fish Creek’s past should be organized and written down, and we began to plan the project. Very early on, we solicited the opinion and aid of Duncan Thorp, a member of one of Fish Creek’s founding families, and of Harwood Hill, who knows a great deal about the history of the Hill family and about steamboats and transportation generally in the town’s early years. Both were enthusiastic. Both contributed manuscripts within a short time. Suddenly we had the beginnings of a book on Fish Creek, and we decided to seek out others to contribute chapters on different aspects of Fish Creek’s past. Everyone we spoke with was enthusiastic, and, almost before we knew it, the project had grown to the size presented in this volume. We were very fortunate to obtain the photographs and maps included here, almost all of which were supplied by Bill Guenzel, who has copied and preserved a great deal of graphic material relating to the history of Door County. Bill’s collection was dramatically expanded and improved by work he did under a grant from Madeline Tourtelot through the Artists-In-Residence Program at the Peninsula School of Art in 1975. A great many people have allowed him to make photographic copies of old photographs and maps, and his collection is of great historical value. Bill is always interested in additional material, and anyone who has old photographs or maps that might be copied and added to the collection is urged to contact him. When we spoke to him about our project, he generously made his collection available to us. X Fish Creek Voices The following people contributed photos or maps that were included or offered for use in this volume: Alice Hotz Apfelbach, Josh Bell, James Brown, Elsa Carl, Martha Hochmeister Cherry, Eunice Clark, Archibald Douglass, Jr., Skip Fairchild, Mrs. Alfred Franke, Wilmer Gartman, Alice Paepcke Guenzel, Betsy and Paul Guenzel, Ferdinand L. Hotz, Dr. Gertrude Howe, Mrs. Caa McGee, Foster Olson, Rose Pelke, Vivian Duclon Shine, Harold Thorp, Merle Thorp, Ralph Von Briessen, Hudson Van Vorous, and Alma Lundberg Waldo. We thank them all for their generosity. We are also indebted to Linda Silvasi Kelly for line drawings which appear in several places in the book. It has been our intention in this book to record in a more or less informal way the beginnings of the village of Fish Creek, its people, and its development from a small Wisconsin fishing and lumbering village to a popular resort area. We have been as precise as memories will allow, and we beg our readers’ indulgence for any inaccuracies or discrepancies. We feel that we have presented a well- rounded picture of Fish Creek as it existed during the early part of the century, and we hope that you enjoy reading it as much as we have enjoyed bringing it to you. The royalties from the sale of this book will benefit the Gibraltar Historical Association. Edward Schreiber Lois Schreiber Fish Creek, January 1990 Before the First Man by Duncan Thorp In the beginning was the greatest wall of ice the Earth had ever seen. It devastated two-thirds of Europe and the top half of North America, where it was called the Wisconsin or Algonquin Glacier. It reached south beyond Chicago, and it melted into mighty rivers. It was a blue-steel plow that rent the land at random, or bent it into vast valleys with its enormous weight. Where the basins of Lakes Michigan and Huron join near the Straits of Mackinac, a plow of ice split off from the great Lake Michigan lobe and plowed a deep trench with sub-mountains on one side and limestone cliffs on the other. This became an arm of the lake that was named Baiee Vert (Green Bay) by early French explorers. The riven splinter of land is the hundred-mile-long finger of cliff and forest, sequined with water and a jeweled archipelago of islands, now known as the Door County Peninsula, though it was named Cape Townsend for a few years. The bluffs of Door County are part of the Niagara Escarpment, extending east to Niagara Falls. The peninsula was one of those wondrous nooks that explorers were always discovering as they prowled across the new settler, lands. It was an Eden of waters, fish, nests and game for the with acres of soil for husbandmen with plow and seed, and trees for lumbermen with saw and axe. Before European settlers found it, red men prized the Cape and fought bloody wars here. On one occasion, so they told the first Europeans they met, the last of the original Cape Indians were driven to the tip of the Cape, and most of their fighting men established themselves on the islands just north of Land’s End. Determined to recover their homeland in one last great battle, the Indians on the islands sent ashore two spies to seek out the enemy camp, with instructions to build a small signal fire on the beach where it was 2 Fish Creek Voices possible to land a raiding party at night. The two spies were captured and "persuaded" to reveal their mission. On a stormy night the enemies built the signal fire when the waves smashed against the crags, and the entire flotilla of canoes set forth and were wrecked in the night and the storm. A handful managed to climb the low cliff and were promptly tomahawked for their pains. Never again was the Cape the exclusive grounds of the Potowatami, and the strait at the tip of the Cape became known in French histories as Port des Mortes - Door of the Dead. The strait eventually was called "The Door" and the peninsula, Door County.

Vlad Vergu Delft; June 30, 2011 II Summary Model driven software development is gaining momentum in the software engi- neering world. One approach to model driven software development is the design and development of domain-specific languages allowing programmers and users to spend more time on their core business and less on addressing non problem- specific issues. Language workbenches and support languages and compilers are necessary for supporting development of these domain-specific languages. One such workbench is the Spoofax Language Workbench.

  • Download the Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trails Plan
    Water Trail Plan Inland Waterway and Straits Area Cheboygan and Emmet Counties Funded by: Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce and the Michigan Coastal Management Program, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality with support from the Emmet County, Cheboygan County, Mackinaw City, and volunteers. June 2014 1 Inland Waterway and Straits Area Water Trail Plan Introduction The Inland Waterway is a 40 mile long historic water route that connects Lake Huron by way of Cheboygan, Indian River, Alanson, and Conway and with series of long portages at the headwaters to Petoskey State Park and Lake Michigan. A coastal route, part of the Huron Shores Blueways, connects the City of Cheboygan to Mackinaw City and the Straits of Mackinac. Like the interior water trails, the coastal waters have been used for transportation for thousands of years. The Inland Waterway has long been marketed as the motor boating paradise. Sitting along the banks of the Indian River on a summer afternoon and watching a steady stream of motored craft pass by, attests to the marketing success. There has never been a multi-community effort to organize and promote a paddle trail. Human-powered quiet water sports are among the fastest growing outdoor recreation activities. Combined with other active sports facilities such as the North Central State Trail, North Western State Trail and the North Country Trail, the water trail will bring visitors to the area, add to the quality of life for residents and enhance the rural-recreation sense of place. Furthermore, development of the water trail represents a regional, multi organization effort and will support economic development in the region of the state dependent upon recreational visitors.

As you know, we share your desire to restore all the Great Lakes AOCs and to formally delist them. Based upon a review of your submittal and the supporting data, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approves your request to remove these BUis from the Lower Menominee River AOC. EPA will notify the International Joint Commission (IJC) of this significant positive environmental change at this AOC. We congratulate you and your staff as well as the many federal, state and local partners who have been instrumental in achieving this environmental improvement. Removal of these BUis will benefit not only the people who live and work in the Lower Menominee River AOC, but all residents of Michigan, Wisconsin, and the Great Lakes Basin as well. We look forward to the continuation of this important and productive relationship with your agency and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources as we work together to delist this AOC in the year to come.

  • Door County Place Names Project of the Peninsula Genealogical Society to James Halstead (1926 -2000)
    Copyright 2005 by the Peninsula Genealogical Society 477 No. 6th Ave. Sturgeon Bay WI 54235 e-mail address: [email protected] Dedication We wish to dedicate this The Door County Place Names Project of the Peninsula Genealogical Society to James Halstead (1926 -2000). He was one of our dedicated charter members during the creation of this project but more than that, his great knowledge of Door County and his willingness to share that knowledge and perfect the final locations of so very many of the places herein has made this project one that we know will be of great help to researchers in and of Door County Wisconsin. “We hope you are pleased with the final project, Jim!” Introduction We have had many deterrents along the way but have not given up what we feel is a project worth doing and after fifteen years of waiting, the PGS Door County Place Names Project has finally been completed. While working on a Door County Research Guide in the beginning of The Peninsula Genealogical Society’s infancy around 1990, the need for a Door County Place Names Project became apparent. Many old names of places in the County were unknown as to location on the maps of our time. Family history researchers had old letters indicating places long lost to recent knowledge, so the Society began to gather names with their locations with the plan to include them in the Research Guide. That place names part of the Research Guide was becoming a massive undertaking and one to be a project worthy to stand on its own.
