ADDRESSES:
Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by the Neville Public
Museum of Brown County professional
staff in consultation with
representatives of the Ho-Chunk Nation
of Wisconsin and the Menominee
Indian Tribe of Wisconsin.
History and Description of the Remains
In 1961, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from Rowleys Bay in Door
County, WI. A partial skeleton of a 35–
50 year-old person of indeterminate
gender was discovered by landowner
and excavated by a crew from Neville
Public Museum of Brown County, under
direction of Ron Mason. The human
remains were brought to Neville Public
Museum of Brown County after
excavation. No known individuals were
identified. The three associated funerary
objects are 1 copper point, 1 antler
flaker, and 1 vial with bone fragments
and red ocher.
Associated copper point and red
ocher suggest a Late Archaic date of
burial. The Menominee and Ho-Chunk
people are associated with long-term,
pre-contact residence in northeast
Wisconsin.
In 1961, human remains representing,
at minimum, one individual were
removed from Porte de Morts Site in
Door County, WI. A partial skeleton of
one adult of indeterminate gender was
excavated by a crew from Neville Public
Museum of Brown County, under
direction of Ron J. Mason and Carol I.

Mason. The human remains were kept
at Lawrence University until 1994 when
they were returned to the Neville Public
Museum of Brown County. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The burial was made by people of the
North Bay (pre-contact Middle
Woodland Period) culture. The
Menominee and Ho-Chunk people are
two tribes whose origins lie in eastern
Wisconsin, although their connection to
the North Bay culture is not directly
established by archeological evidence.
Between 1900 and 1930, human
remains representing, at minimum, one
individual were removed from the
DeBaker Farm, Red River, Kewaunee
County, WI. A partial skeleton of one
adult, possibly female, was discovered
by John P. Schumacher. The human
remains were among sherds donated to
the Neville Public Museum of Brown
County by John P. Schumacher in 1935.
No known individuals were identified.
The 38 associated funerary objects are
pottery sherds.
Recognizable pottery types include
North Bay (Middle Woodland Period),
Point Sauble collared and Madison
folded lip (both Late Woodland types)
and undecorated Oneota sherds from
the late prehistoric period. One sherd
may be historic.
This location was ceded to the U.S.
Government by the Menominee people
but is near Red Banks, a place of
ancestral origin of some Ho-Chunk
clans. Accompanying sherds indicate a
pre-contact burial date is likely, but not
conclusive.
Determinations Made by the Neville
Public Museum of Brown County
Officials of the Neville Public
Museum of Brown County have
determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of 3
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A),
the 41 objects described in this notice
are reasonably believed to have been
placed with or near individual human
remains at the time of death or later as
part of the death rite or ceremony.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there
is a relationship of shared group
identity that can be reasonably traced
between the Native American human
remains and associated funerary objects
and Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin and
Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin.

Consultation
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by Hudson Museum
and University of Maine professional
staff in consultation with
representatives of the Miccosukee Tribe
of Indians and the Seminole Tribe of
Florida (previously listed as the
Seminole Tribe of Florida (Dania, Big
Cypress, Brighton, Hollywood & Tampa
Reservations)).
History and Description of the Remains
In 1928, human remains representing,
at minimum, two individuals were
removed from Weeden Island in
Pinellas County, FL. They were
excavated by Dr. Clarence Edmonds
Hemingway (Ernest Hemingway’s
father) and were part of the Portland
Society of Natural History Collection,
which were transferred to the Hudson
Museum in 1970. The human remains
represent one male, age 25–40, and one
female, age 30–60. No known
individuals were identified. No
associated funerary objects are present.
The human remains were examined
by Marcella H. Sorg, Ph.D., D–ABFA,
