August H. Vogel

He was president of the Milwaukee University School, chairman of the board of trustees of Milwaukee-Downer College, a director and vice-president of the Visiting Nurse association, a trustee and former president of St. Johns Home for the Aged, and senior warden and treasurer of the endowment fund of St. James Episcopal church.

On its north shore is the residence designed by Eschweiler and in its rear the Vogel farm and Pauline's Wood Co. property referred to as the clubhouse.

The Paulines wood property was the summer residences of Mrs. Emilie Nunnemacher, Mrs. Hedwig Earth and Mr. and Mrs. August C. Helmholz.

[8] The Vogel Bay site has historical significance because the Potawatomi Indian West Shore Trail passed through the area.

At the head of this bay hearthstones and a few flint chips were found in the rear of a small cottage in a spot from which the sod had recently been removed.

The Vogel family harvested bark from oak and hemlock trees located on thousands of acres they owned in North Georgia.
