Lucy Fifield Lindsay

Oconto County Reporter
September 27, 1895

Mrs. Julia A. Lindsey will leave Oconto next week for a visit of a couple of years with relatives and friends in Bangor, Me., her old home. Mrs. Lindsey will be much missed in social circles of this city, of which she was one of the earliest settlers - there being but three houses here when she came. The good wishes of friends go with her and they will anxiously await her return.

p. 117 of George E. Hall's book, A History of Oconto, 1969 in a discussion on the early and prominent women of Oconto.
"Mrs. Arabella McDonald, wife of Paul McDonald after whom McDonald Street was named, was connected with a lumber company that operated at Oconto in its pioneer days. She also purchased and sold considerable property in the city. She, with Mrs. Thomas Lindsey, Mrs. Richard Berry and Mrs. William Brunquest, were considered the first four pioneer women from the East to settle at Oconto."
