RANDOM ATLAS MOMENT: Niagara, Wisconsin

Via the Wiki Men:

Niagara is an Iroquois word that means “thun­der­ing waters.”

Via the City of Niagara Web site:

Niagara com­bines the ulti­mate out­door recre­ational plea­sure with the indus­trial sup­port you need to suc­ceed. Located within the Iron Mountain/Kingsford urban area, 90 miles north (1 1/2 hours) of Green Bay, Wisconsin, Niagara offers a unique blend of busi­ness and pleasure.

Winter temp. 15°F, Summer 80°F, Rainfall 27”, snow­fall 40”

Via a site called Ghosts of America:

The ghost of an engine dri­ver is some­times observed pulling a dead body from the ice cold water of Fumee Creek around midnight.

A lady with­out a head is known to have been dis­tin­guished on one or two instances down next to Sand Portage Falls in the early morn­ing hours fac­ing the bystander. A man who lives here argues that this ghost is that of a per­son who set­tled here in Niagara many years ago.

A guy lack­ing a head was wit­nessed chat­ting into the thin air as if some­body besides was present. The eye wit­ness got freaked out and ran off. Anyhow, this is a nasty phan­tom that you shouldn’t go seeking.

Via the home page of WNBA player Anna DeForge:

(Anna) honed her remark­able skills back home in Wisconsin in the small town of Niagara, where she went on to become Wisconsin’s career female lead­ing scorer for 10 years from 1994 – 2004. Currently, she is 2nd All-Time lead­ing scorer in Wisconsin State History for women with 2,601 career points.
