This week marks the 100th anniversary of an ice storm that crippled much of Wisconsin in 1922.
Here are the original newspaper reports of the local effects of the storm from 1922, with the start of the storm covered in the Feb. 23 edition (one paragraph in second column, toward bottom of page) and the more complete story in the March 2 edition.
I also am attaching a brief recollection from Dorothea Huenerberg in her Sandburrs column from the 1977 Princeton Times-Republic and a more complete story about the storm from the 1997 Princeton Times-Republic.
Enjoy.
Stay warm.
Thanks for caring and reading about local history.
