A new and sparsely settled County, extending from Lake Michigan to Green Bay, and occupying the head of the peninsula. Its principal settlement is at the mouth of the Kewaunee, and its principal trade is lumber, which is cut on that stream. There is much Government land in Kewaunee and most of it of a very good quality.

They should be of interest to genealogists because they show the locations of many places that no longer exist. Offsite link by Rick Hagen
