Scrapbooks principally documenting the Vicks’ travels throughout Wisconsin. The scrapbooks consist of maps, brochures, and news articles the Vick family collected while visiting parks and historic sites throughout the state.

Also included is a scrapbook Harriette (Howard) Vick kept during her adolescence (1926-1941) and a scrapbook kept by Harvey (1943-1970) principally documenting his World War II service. Loose photographs include images of Harriette’s family; many are of her uncle, John Enz, and the Denmark (Wis.) area. Additionally, there is a small amount of ephemera including baptismal certificates, postcards, some World War II materials, report cards, and some of Harvey’s school notebooks.

Papers and photographs of the Isabel (Johnson) Ebert family, the bulk of which chronicles the girls’ Camp Minne-wawa that Isabel and her husband Marcus founded on Tomahawk Lake in northern Wisconsin in 1912. A small portion documents the boys’ Camp Ad-a-wa-gam that the family also started on Tomahawk Lake. Also included is some family genealogical history that includes the family names Johnson, Whitelaw, and Schachter. The papers consist of Isabel’s historical research papers, writings, and accomplishments regarding Camp Minne-wawa as well as her founding of the Northland Historical Society in the 1950s.
