Ashland, WI was incorporated as a City on March 25, 1887. It is located on Chequamegon Bay of Lake Superior. Legend says that the “Shining Big Sea Water” mentioned in Longfellow’s poem “Hiawatha” was Chequamegon Bay. Before being settled by white men, this area was home to the Chippewa Indians. Lake Superior helped Ashland grow as a City, with logs shipped to, and processed lumber and iron ore shipped out from, our port. Ashland became the trading, wholesale, medical, and educational center of northern Wisconsin.

Nice video. I grew up 1 hour south of Ashland. Chequamegon is pronounced, Shehwamagon.

Thanks for the info! One of the hardest things for me to do when preparing videos is some of the names of towns and people. I try to research some - but even the internet gives me faulty information. Thanks for helping me out as I'm headed back to WI next year for more videos!
