1880 Plat Map list of Cottagers & Property Owners East Shore

1880 Plat Map list of Cottagers & Property Owners East Shore
This is probably an incomplete listing probably of cottage lots and owners - but this is what was listed on the plat map of 1876 and what I am able to decipher of it. I hope to connect everything from the 1876 plat map forward but that will take time and much more research - in hopes of making an accurate history and genealogy of the lake and along the way gathering pictures, maps, stories, myths, legends, biographies, obitauries etc. to enhance it.

None of these listings are eteched in stone - it is probably just a partial listing from sources during this time period - and based on known facts of 1876, on the plat map - everything may change if I can ever get the use of some of the abstracts or cottagers step forth with corrected data.

I will try and carry this data forward to each of the plat maps if I can connect from this one to the next.

Hopefully from deeds, abstracts and future research we can list the complete property owners at this time.
