How about sharing this link with others so we can get descendants (and others) to create pages for those involved in the Great Fire? It would be great to have schools in affected areas build pages for people there.

Wake up Sleeping Wolf with lots of "likes" so we can wake up some smart movie producer and make a movie about this.

Let the firestorm spread

STEP #1. Create pages for your descendants. Students or anyone can do it.
STEP #2. Upload an 851 x 315 graphic for your cover picture (like Sleeping Wolf's cover picture).
STEP #3 Upload other pictures of the fire, eye-witness accounts, and any other info you might have.
STEP #4 "Like" Sleeping Wolf, leave a comment, and share a link to your page.
In this way we can connect your page with others in the Great Peshtigo File. Survivors and those that perished will finally have a voice. People need to learn what happened here. If you need help, or have questions, please email [email protected].

Deadliest Fire in United States History

03/30/2012

READ THIS BOOK! Even though the actual death toll is not known, the Great Peshtigo Firestorm is still one of the top ten worst disasters in the history of the United States, with estimates ranging from 1200 to 2400 or more lives lost. Unlike modern day tragedies such as Katrina, these hard working Northeastern Wisconsin people worked together, rebuilding from the ashes under the most terrible conditions imaginable, yet received almost no help or support.
