Does anyone know anything about a bridge built across the lake in the ninetieth century? My father-in-law said the old pilings were a good place to fish, but no one else is talking.
From The Appleton Crescent 1854:
"Bridge Across Lake Puckaway -- We learn from the Marquette Mercury that a good and substantial bridge is about to be constructed across Lake Puckaway. The cost is estimated at from three to four thousand dollars. -- Madison Jour."
A War Department Document from 1866 mentions "the bridge at Marquette" in passing, so it was built, or partially built.
