 SHAWAUNAW. From: Handbook of Wisconsin by S. Silas, 1855 pg. 101-102 A County formed two years since, and not wholly in market. The land is good, high, and the climate healthy. It is timbered with pine, but is also a good agricultural County. Much of the pine cut is floated down the Wolf to Lake Shawaunaw. A large business has been done by these streamers during the Summers of 1854 and '5, which indicates an increase of population and business in that region. Shawaunaw, at the outlet of the Lake of the same name, is the County Seat. The County is in the Menasha land district.
