About Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin
Wisconsin Rapids is a city of 18,877 people and the county seat of Wood County, on the Wisconsin River. The Menominee called the rapids here "Ah-dah-wah-gam," or two-sided rapids, because a big rock split the current. In 1836 they gave up a strip of land along the river in the Treaty of the Cedars, and U.S. negotiators wanted that strip first for its pine. Lumbermen hurried in to find mill sites, and by 1839 two sawmills were running at the spot a surveyor called the Grand Rapids.
Grand Rapids became the seat of the new Wood County in 1856 and incorporated as a city in 1869. Across the river, Centralia grew around George Kline Sr.'s sawmill and became a city in 1874. The two cities joined in 1900 under the name Grand Rapids. Mail and freight kept going astray to Grand Rapids, Michigan, so in 1920 the city took the name Wisconsin Rapids.
“a rough lumbering town, filled with lumberjacks who engaged in many drunken brawls”
- 130 men and 17 womenPioneer J.L. Cotey wrote down how the sawmill town looked in 1846. He counted 130 males and 17 females, with shops along a slough crossed by a slab bridge and boarding houses and saloons for the mill workers. Supplies came overland by ox and wagon from Galena, a trip of three weeks.
- Running the Grand RapidsMill owners bound their boards into cribs 16 by 16 feet and joined six or seven of them into a flexible raft about 100 feet long. The river here churned through a mile of rapids, among the most dangerous on the upper Wisconsin, so crews ran them at high water while people watched from shore. Railroads took over the lumber trade, and the last rafts left in 1888, bound from Biron for St. Louis.
- The flood of 1880In June 1880 the river rose unusually high. Merchants carried their stock to higher ground and tied some buildings down with ropes, but several were swept away anyway, and one partner in a hardware store drowned trying to save his goods. In 1880 the population stood at 1,367 in Grand Rapids and 800 in Centralia.
- From sawmills to paperAround 1885 some of the old sawmills and gristmills began grinding pulp and making paper. By 1902 J.D. Witter and Nels Johnson had gathered the mills and water rights into one corporation, Consolidated Water Power Company, and chose to focus on paper.
- 50 tons of paper a dayBoth Witter and Johnson died soon after the merger, and Witter's son-in-law George Mead took charge of the business. Its main plant started with 14 pulp grinders and two paper machines, turning out 50 tons a day.
