Brumder Properties

Image

An unsigned, hand-drawn map of properties owned by members of the Brumder family on the northwest shore of Pine Lake in 1929. Named Villa Henrietta, the property included the original summer home of Milwaukee publisher George Brumder and his wife Henriette. It is located near the center of the property, shown on the map with its circular drive and walkway leading to "old motorboat landing." The map also identifies structures belonging to Brumder's sons William C., George F., Herbert P., Herman O., and his grandson, Edward.
