Wisconsin Historical Marker – the Brothertown Indians arrive at their Wisconsin home

It is a story of looking for a permanent home to call their own. Between March 1775, when the first Indians removed to what would become Brothertown in upstate New York, and the early 1830s, when the tribe began settling on the east side of Lake Winnebago, the Brothertown Indians had moved seven times. Their last two moves were within Michigan Territory, on land that would later become the state of Wisconsin. 

This marker commemorates the struggle to find a home. Erected 1990 by Wisconsin Historical Society
