Wisconsin Trails to the Past Shipwrecks and Lighthouses

Shipwrecks and Lighthouses

Any area with a port will have had a shipwreck in it's history. Wisconsin is no different. Some accounts say that there have been 750 or more shipwrecks along Wisconsin's borders. Here is a list of shipwrecks (it is not complete). If you have information about a shipwreck along Wisconsin's coasts, please email me and I will be happy to include it. Eventually, would like to see information about passengers and crew that survived or not.
