NOTES

Frederick used the building for a workshop until he could no longer woodwork. At that time is became a playhouse for the Fromm children.

A 'site file' (Fromm Brothers Fur and Ginseng Farm Complex) exists for this property. It contains additional information such as correspondence, newspaper clippings, or historical information. It is a public record and may be viewed in person at the Wisconsin Historical Society, Division of Historic Preservation-Public History.
