SUMMARY:Hickory\, Dickory\, Dock: The Ghost Lumber Ports of Lake Michigan
DESCRIPTION:In the last half of the 1800s entrepreneurs and businessmen constructed dozens of privately-funded “bridge piers” along the western shores of Lake Michigan. At these piers\, Wisconsin’s forests were exchanged for manufac-tured goods and new settlers. The piers and their associated general stores and lumber mills became seeds around which busy shipping hubs\, villages\, and towns grew and briefly thrived\, and helped to decide the future of east-ern Wisconsin’s economy. Though creations of the 19th century lumber boom\, they and their owners helped to save the lakeshore counties when na-ture and waste turned against local residents\, and provided the means for life to continue when the trees were gone. Ongoing research by archaeologists and divers with the Wisconsin Historical Society is bringing back the stories of lost communities such as Ronksville\, Carlton\, and Langworthy\, telling for-gotten tales of life in Wisconsin’s Ghost Ports. \nPresenter:  Dr. Amy Rosebrough is a Staff Archaeologist with the Office of the State Archaeologist at the Wisconsin Historical Society\, where she manages archaeological and burial sites data\, assists Wisconsin’s citizens with archaeological questions\, and serves as a subject matter expert. \nRegister in advance for this webinar: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_g9na5E-QQYa-XSUH–Ue6A\nPlease note: The webinar is Free\, but pre-registration is required.
