Two years later, in 1842, Mr. George C. Cole came to Sheboygan, and enumerates the following persons as then residents in the county ; in Sheboygan and along the lake in this town, Capt. N. W. Brooks, wife and girl, Stephen Wolverton, wife, son and daughter, Joshua Brown and wife, John Glass and wife, Don Fairchild. David Wilson and family, Alvah Rublee and family, David Evans and wife, now of Oshkosh, Hiramn G. D. Squires, William Ash- by and wife, Aaron Ritter and family (stayed only a few months), A. Farrow, Wentworth Barber. At the Dye set- tlement, Asahel G. Dve and family, the Widow Farmin and son Benjamin, Newell Upham and wife, Chauncey HIall and family, Wendell Hoffman and wife, Elizabeth Cady, spinster, and brother Edward. At Gibbsville, John D. Gibbs and family, James HI. Gibbs and wife, Benjamin L.

At Sheboygan Falls, Albert Rounseville, wife and two children, Benjamin C. Trow- bridge, wife and family, including Alvira O'Cain, Maria Dieckmann, Seth Morse, Samuel Rounseville, Harmon Pierce, Nelson Bradford, George O. Trowbridge, all of the above living in one house, Silas Stedman and wife, David Giddings and wife, Charles D. Cole, wife and family, and George T., William II. and James R. Cole, afterward his mother and three sisters, and his brother George C. lived with Chas. D. Cole. On the Trowbridge farm, William Trowbridge, his wife and sons William S., James T., Thaddeus and John. All the sons are now dead except James T. Chas. D. Cole was Postmaster, the mail being carried every week between Milwaukee and Green Bay by a Frenchman on an Indian pony. C. D. Cole was one of the earliest dealers in mer- chandise in Sheboygan, and at the Falls Mr. Hoffman per- formed the duties of doetor, though the people were so healthy he had not much to do. William Trowbridge, being what was called in the East a whitesmith, did the black-

smithing for the neighborhood. H. Pierce was a miller : Benjamin L. Gibbs did a little tailoring, and James H. did something in shoemaking. Thus were the particular gifts of individuals utilized in early days.

A settlement of Fourierites was begun in the town of Mitchell in 1846, by a colony from the State of New York, but failing to secure a charter from the Legislature, it broke up, some of the members joining the similar settlement at Ceresco, near Ripon, in this State, and only three families remaining here. In the same year, the Dutch settlement, in the town of Holland, was begun. G. II. TeKolste being the pioneer of that nationality.

The number of settlers gradually increased each year, but it was not until about ten years after the first settle- ment of the county that there was any rush of new comers. From 1845 to 1850, rapid strides were made, and many who have had an active part in developing the county and city of Sheboygan and building up the institutions which the present generation are enjoying the advantages of, came during those years to make homes here. Dr. J. J. Brown was one of the pioneers of this time, and from a list of over one hundred names of people living here at the time above mentioned, carefully compiled by him, the following, not before mentioned, are taken : Dr. S. M. Abbott, Henry S. Auable, Daniel Brown, E. Fox Cook, H. H. Conklin, Rev. L. W. Davis, Evan Evans, A. H. Edwards, Judge William R. Goesline, Gen. II. C. Hobart, Thomas C. Horner, J. F. Kirkland, A. P. Lyman, Rev. H. Lyman, John Maynard, Dr. Jairus Rankin, H. N. Ross, William Seaman, H. N. Smith, J. R. Sharpstein, Judge David Taylor, D. C. Vos- burg, George M. Gillett, Frank Stone, John II. Roberts.

It was about this time that the Germans began to settle in the county in considerable numbers. This movement was inaugurated by H. C. Heide, of Milwaukee, and a brother of his with Deidrich Logeman, George Theirman and Deidrich Bartles were the first Germans residents, settling in the town of Sheboygan Falls. This industrious class of people increased steadily until they became the predominant nationality, and remain so still. The State Immigrant Agent reports that during the summer of 1853, 13,400 immigrants landed at Sheboygan.

The following figures, taken from the census returns, shows the growth of the county in population from 1840 to the present time. In 1840, there were 133 people in the county ; in 1842, 227; in 1846, 1,637; in 1847, 5,580; in 1850, 8,370; in 1860, 26,875; in 1870, 31,773; in 1880, 34,221.

ORGANIZATION.

The materials from which to compile an accurate his- torical account of the formation and organization of the county are, unfortunately, extremely meager, all the records of the first twenty-five years of its existence having been destroyed by fire on the first day of January, 1860. It is known, however, that the county was created by an act of the Territorial Legislature, which was approved December 7, 1836. The organization for county purposes was not completed till two years later, when the first election for county and town offices was held, on the first Monday in March, 1839, in pursuance to a Legislative act of the previous December. Section thirty-three of this act pro- vides that : " All that district of country lying within the present limits of Sheboygan County, shall be a separate town by the name of Sheboygan, and elections shall be

holden in said town at the school-house in Sheboygan, and at . Gidding's mill." " From its earliest organization, the County of Sheboygan has embraced the same territory as at present. and for the first ten years after its formation, the town of Sheboygan occupied all the territory included in the county. As new towns were formed they were all " set off " from the town of Sheboygan. The present city of Sheboygan has always been the county seat.

For nearly ten years after the organization of the county it was joined to Brown County for judicial purposes, but on the 1st day of May, 1846, in accordance with an art of January 22, of the same year, it started on an in- lependent career. From that time to the present there has been a constant increase of prosperity, and the county compares favorably with any county in Northern or Central Wisconsin.

The judicial history of the county dates from the morning of June 1. 1846, when the court was called to meet for its first term, in the schoolhouse in the village of Sheboygan. The county at this time belonged to the Third Judicial District, and courts were held twice a year-on the first Monday in May and the third Monday in September. The story of the first meeting of the County Court is an especially interesting one. The Judge failing to appear on the day appointed, June 1, 1846, the court was adjourned to the following day. On June 2, the first court was or- ganized by Judge Andrew G. Miller, Associate Justice of the Territory. John S. Rockwell was United States Marshal ; William P. Lynde, United States District At- torney : D). U. Harrington, Territorial District Attorney ; James Rankin, Clerk ; Silas Stedman, Sheriff; Thomas (. Horner, Crier. It is a remarkable fact that at this first session of the court the jury, no doubt impressed by the importance and responsibility of their position, failed to agree in a single case that was brought before them.

The place for holding the sessions of the court changed with nearly every sitting till, in 1868, it took possession of its present convenient quarters in the court house, first occupied at that time. An enumeration of some of the dif- ferent places in which the court has held its sittings, as gleaned from calls for different sessions, gives some idea of the frequency of its migrations. Among other places inen- tioned are : The Schoolhouse. the Academy, the Congre- gational Church, B. Teyn's Assembly Rooms, the Presby- terian Meeting-House. the basement of the New York Block. the Turner Ilall. and Zaegel's Block.

The county officers for the year 1881 are as follows : County Judge. Bille Williams, of Sheboygan ; Clerk of Court, Felix Benfey, of Plymouth ; Sheriff, W. Pfeil, of Sheboygan : District Attorney. J. Q. Adams, of Sheboygan Falls ; County Clerk, Fred Hoppe. of Rhine; Treasurer, George W. Bradford, of Plymouth ; Register of Deeds, Valentine Detling. of Sheboygan ; Surveyor, L. Bode, of Sheboygan ; Coroner. Julius Breitzmann (now deceased), Lotte appointed : Superintendent of Schools. B. R. Gro- gan, of Elkhart Lake.

An account of the county expenses for the year 1844, taken from the report of the County Commissioners for that year. is of interest as giving a good idea of the county at that early day. Following is the list of charges : For county officers, printing. ete .. $395.40 ; support of poor, 814.75: support of schools, 8220.92; roads and bridges, 8311.20; contingent expenses. 870.96 : county tax. $1 .- 018.69; amount in treasury January 1, 1844. 8892.20;

total expenditure for the year, 82,000.90. This account bears the signatures of Sylvanus Wade, B. R. Farmin and A. W. Knight, County Commissioners, and W. W. Kel- log. Clerk.

In 1852, the county of Sheboygan voted 820,000 in aid of the harbor improvement at the mouth of Sheboygan River. Bonds were issued to that amount, the last install- ment on which was paid in 1865. In the year 1855, the county purchased $100.000 of the stock of the Sheboygan & Mississippi Railroad Company, issuing its bonds to that amount, to run twenty years. In 1864, three year's interest being due, the amount was consolidated with the principal, and one hundred new bonds of $1,280, to fall due in 1883, and bearing interest at the rate of 7 per cent per annum, were issued. In 1871, bonds were issued for the purchase of 880,000 of stock in the Milwaukee, Manitowoc & Green Bay Railroad Company. These bonds fall due August 1, 1886, and bear 7 per cent interest. A total indebtedness for these purposes was thus contracted, amounting to 8228,- 000. This has been reduced by payments from the sinking fund, for which $19,600 is annually raised, to 8117,000, January 1. 1881. The bonded indebtedness of the city of Sheboygan at the same date was 8230,000 : that of the town of Lyndon, $16,200; town of Plymouth. $13,520; town of Sherman, $520.

The first jail was built in the summer of 1851, on the ground now occupied by the court house. In 1853, a brick building for the accommodation of a portion of the county offices, was built on Seventh street, near Center, on lands leased of Judge David Taylor. After the fire of 1860, in which many of the county archives were destroyed, offices were built on the corner of Pennsylvania avenue and Iliek- ory street. The present court house was completed in November, 1868, at a cost of 865,000.

The county is building an asylum for the incurably insane, on land bought of the town of Sheboygan, and situ- ated one-half of a mile west of the city limits. The build- ing is to be of brick ; 120 feet long by 45 feet in width, and of fine architectural appearance. The grounds will contain nineteen acres, and the total cost of building and grounds will not be far from 820,000. The building is to be com- pleted May 1, 1882, and will have accommodations for forty inmates. H. (. Koek & Co., of Milwaukee, are the archi- tects, and Lneeke & Roder and Mueller & Ackerman are the builders.

MEANS OF COMMUNICATION.

For a number of years after the first settlement of the county, connection with the outside world was maintained only by means of boats on the lake, which occasionally touched at Sheboygan. The arrival of the mail was the event of the week, though it occasionally happened-partieu- larly in the winter season-that the place was cut off from all communication with the outside world for months at a time. The trip from Milwaukee was occasionally made by land ; but so difficult was it that it was seldom undertaken by loaded teams. The overland trip was often made along the beach and near the shore of the lake.

The two earliest roads in the county were established by the Territorial Legislature of 1838-39. One of these was made to run from Sheboygan by way of Hustis Rapids, on Roek River, near lloricon, to Madison, and the other was laid out from Sheboygan to Sheboygan Falls, and thence to Fond du Lac. The commissioners for the former were B. L. Gibbs, of Sheboygan ; James L. Thayer, of Mani-

towoc, and John Hustis, of Milwaukee; and, for the latter, Charles D. Cole and David Giddings, of Sheboygan, and John Bannester, of Fond du Lac. A Government appro- priation of 83,000 was expended on the Fond du Lac road in 1845. Of plank roads, the Sheboygan & Fond du Lac road was chartered in 1851, and completed in July, 1852. The Sheboygan & Calumet plank road was incor- porated two years later; completed to Howard's Grove in 1856, and built to Kiel, Manitowoc County, in 1859. September 4, 1852, the Sheboygan River Plank Road Company was organized at Sheboygan Falls. J. F. Seely was chosen President ; S. B. Ormsbee, Secretary, and John Kelley, Treasurer. That the early settlers were alive to the importance of having good roads, is shown by the fact that in a local town-meeting, when it was proposed to raise $100 for roads and $1,000 for schools, the voters reversed the sums giving the $1,000 to the roads.

The means of communication between different parts of the county and with the outside world, are now equaled by few counties in the State. Two lines of railroad-the Mil- waukee, Lake Shore & Western and the Milwaukee & Northern-traverse it from north to south, and the Sheboy- gan & Fond du Lac brings it into easy communication with the central part of the State. Add to this its thirty miles of lake coast, a good harbor, passenger boats touching daily and all kinds of freight boats constantly loading and unload- ing in its harbors, and you have a county that can be sur- passed by few in its facilities for both land and water com . munication.

Railroads .- In the same year that the improvement of Sheboygan's harbor facilities was actively engaged in, the necessity of railroad connection with the interior was impressed upon leading citizens of the county. At a meet- ing held in the city of Sheboygan September 6, 1852, to talk over the matter of a railway to Milwaukee and thence to Chicago, the conclusion was arrived at that inasmuch as water communication existed to these points already, it would be wiser to first turn attention to the building of a road back into the interior of the State, and across it to the Mississippi River. The Sheboygan & Mississippi Rail- road Company had been incorporated on the 8th of March of that year, and books opened for the subscription of stock, but the company was not organized until the follow- ing year. At a meeting in Sheboygan, held for this pur- pose April 5, 1853, J. F. Kirkland was elected President, and M. J. Thomas, Secretary. Work was actually begun on the construction of the road June 4, 1856, by the con- tractors, Edward Appleton & Co. The road was completed to Sheboygan Falls in January, 1859. to Plymouth June 6, of the same year, and to Gienbeulah March 29, 1860. This was as far as the above-mentioned contract extended. The road suffered the fate of most new enterprises of this character, and, after foreclosure of mortgage, the company was re-organized. The new organization was known as the Sheboygan & Fond du Lac Railroad Company, and its officers were S. P. Benson, President, and J. O. Thayer, Secretary and Treasurer. Finally, the road was completed to Fond du Lac February 14, 1869. It was subsequently puslied on to Princeton, in Green Lake County, which point was reached in the fall of 1871. The road is now under the management of the Chicago & North-Western Railroad Company.

The Milwaukee & Northern .- The Milwaukee & North- ern Railroad Company was incorporated February 24.

1870, and the contract let for the construction of a road from Milwaukee to Green Bay. The road runs through the western portion of the county, crossing the Fond du Lac road at Plymouth, which point was reached early in the year 1872. The road was, in the year 1874, leased to the Wisconsin Central Railroad Company.

The Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western -- The import- ance to the city of Sheboygan of obtaining railroad com- munication to the South, connecting it with Milwaukee & Chicago, became so manifest as time went on that when a movement for a lake shore road was started. leading busi- ness men at once took a deep interest in the project. On the 10th of March. 1870, the Milwaukee, Manitowoc & Green Bay Railroad Company was organized and work at once commenced. Interruptions occurred, and it was No- vember 21, 1872, when the first passenger train was run between Milwaukee and Sheboygan. December 10, 1875, the road was sold under foreclosure of mortgage, and in re- organization the present name, Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western was adopted. It has always done a thriving busi- ness.

The Sheboygan & Fond du Lac and the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western received liberal aid from the city and county of Sheboygan in the purchase of stock, and the Wisconsin Central from several of the towns through which it passes.

Postal Facilities .- A post office was established in She- boygan as early as the autumn of 1836, James Farnsworth being appointed Postmaster. In 1839, this office was dis- continued for the reason that the Postmaster's family was the only one then living in the place. An office was also established at Sheboygan Falls in 1837, George B. Babcock receiving the appointment of Postmaster. The first mail carrier, named Griswold, committed suicide by hanging in 1837. The mails were brought overland, and were slow, so that Eastern newspapers were very old when they reached here It was not until 1849 that this condition of things was greatly bettered. In June of this year the matter having been brought to the attention of the Postmaster General, the mails were ordered to be brought from Milwaukee by the steamer Champion, which came regularly into this port three times a week. By this arrangement, mails were received two days in advance of the previous delivery. Up to this time, it had taken as long to get the mails from Mil- waukee as they were in coming from Buffalo to Milwaukee. By the new order mails reached here from Buffalo in about fifty hours. This was regarded as a substantial gain by the business interests of Sheboygan. The following is the list of post offices in the county at the present time, numbering twenty-eight in all. Ada, Adell, Beechwood. Cedar Grove, Cascade, Dacada, Edwards, Elkhart Lake, Franklin, Gibbs- ville, Glenbeulah, Howard's Grove, Hingham, Johnsonville. Our Town, Onion River, Oostburg, Plymouth, Random Lake, Rathbun. Rhine, Scott, Sheboygan, Sheboygan Falls, Silver Creek, Winooski.

A telegraph line was run along the lake shore from Milwaukee to Sheboygan in 1851, but was sold for taxes and taken down.

LEGISLATIVE.

Sheboygan County was first associated with Brown, Fond du Lac and Manitowoc Counties, for representation in the Territorial Council and House of Representatives, and was so represented in the session of 1840-41. In the Leg- islature of 1841-42 Portage was united with the counties

already named. In the next Legislature (that of 1842-43), Brown, Calumet, Fond du Lac, Manitowoc, Marquette, Portage. Sheboygan and Winnebago were associated for rep- resentative purposes. This organization was maintained until the session of 1847, when Washington and Sheboygan Counties were coupled for representation, and so remained until the State organization. During this time, Sheboygan County was represented by resident members in the Legis- latures of 1840-41 and 1841-42 by Hon. David Giddings, and by Hon. Harrison C. Hobart in the session of 1847. F. M. Rublee, of this county, was Sergeant-at-Arms of the llouse in the session of 1840-41. In the first Constitu- tional Convention, in its sessions of 1846, Sheboygan County was represented by llon. David Giddings. In the second Constitutional Convention, in its seesions of Decem- ber 15. 1847, and February 1, 1848, Sheboygan and Mani- towoc Counties were represented by Silas Steadman. The political history of the county since the State organization eannot better be recorded than by giving the names of those who have been elected to seats in the Legislature from year to year :

SCHOOLS.

The contrast to the little school of a dozen pupils in 1836, supported by subscription, the citizens of Sheboygan County point with pride to the generous provision which has been made for the education of the children within her borders. In 1870, there were 117 schoolhouses in the county, and 12,384 children entitled to draw money from the State School Fund. In his annual report for 1880, the County Superintendent of Schools reports that 125 teachers are required to teach the schools of the county. The number of teachers employed during the year was 190. The average wages of male teachers was $41.06 per month, and of female teachers, 822.71. The average number of days of school taught during the year, per district, was 146. There were in the county, 2,331 children between the ages
