The Cadottes

Join the Charles E. Brown Chapter of the Wisconsin Archeological Society and award-winning author Robert Silbernagel as he examines the early French history of Lake Superior through the lens of the Cadotte family. Madeline Island, the largest of Wisconsin's Apostle Islands, contains some of the most significant French-era and Ojibwe archaeology in our state. Come hear how these sites were formed, and join us for an exploration of the interplay between French and Native societies.
