Two Marys on Birch-lined Path

Mother Mary is wearing boots and a wool coat and dress while leaning her right arm on a birch tree as she smilingly looks at the snow chunk her daughter is showing her. Daughter Mary is wearing boots, gators, coat, mittens and a hat as she holds up the snow chunk. |

Forest Lodge on Lake Namakagon was originally the Northern Wisconsin Lumber Company. In 1902 Crawford Livingston purchased 100 acres of the lakeshore property for hunting and vacation purposes. Crawford Livingston’s daughter Mary Livingston Griggs and granddaughter Mary Griggs Burke continued to maintain and expand the property until Mary Burke’s death in 2012 when all 872 acres of Forest Lodge were entirely gifted to the U.S. Forest Service. |
