Chasing Ancestors


We spent the past week in the Bayfield, WI area (with no convenient internet) enjoying cool weather and Lake Superior. Dick has traced one maternal line back to the Ojibwe; two of his ancestors were born in the 1600s at La Pointe on Madeline Island. Naturally, we took the ferry from Bayfield to visit the land where two of the chiefs lived before that clan relocated to Lac de Flambeau. The Madeline Island Museum was an interesting place with many exhibits of the island's unique history.
