Okerstrom who is credited with founding the town of Port Wing, Wisconsin. TN operated 12 logging camps, a sawmill and was instrumental in surveying and helped to build the town. We have quite a bit of family history if you are interested or are connected to the Flagg River/Port Wing area. I am a great-grandson of T.N.

Do you know exactly where in northern Wisconsin? And I'd recommend that you contact the Marriette County Logging Museum and provide them with good quality copies as they have one of the best museums on the subject and need financial and material support for their collections. @Zella Billington:
