Subject: Military trail
Hi
Does anyone have knowledge about the Military Trail during the Civil War th
at went from Green Bay to Superior? The route was purported to bypass more
lakes than another route.The trail was made for Cavalry use to protect the
settlers from Indians.. Then there were no hostile Indians. A local perso
n related that he had read about it and it goes thru my property in Price C
ounty. The ruts are still visible in places on nearby land. Anyone have acc
ess to history books on this subject or location of the trail from Price co
unty to Superior?
