1 Park News National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior The Guide The official newspaper of National Historical Park and the Heritage Sites Summer Issue Capture the Far from the bustle of city life, the Peninsula possesses a beauty and hosts a lifestyle all its own. Located eight hours north of Chicago and three hours from the nearest interstate, the, as it is known, sits at the far reaches of ern Michigan on a peninsula jutting into Superior. It is a destination unto itself and one not easily reached on the way to some other place, but the rewards upon arrival are plentiful and worth the time. Initially, many people were attracted to the Peninsula for the abundant natural resources that existed, namely copper. As mining communities developed, commerce also became a lure but for most, it was still about the use of resources like timber, fish, and copper. Today, travelers are attracted to the area for its scenic beauty and recreational opportunities. The place abounds with possibilities hiking, skiing, painting, fishing, and so on. It is also a place rich in history, arts, and culture. Whether visiting for a day or a week, the area has much to offer. A first stop on the travel route should include either National Historical Park s Visitor Information Desk at the Quincy Mine or the park headquarters building in Calumet. Both locations have staff available to answer questions about the Heritage Sites associated with the copper mining history of the area, as well as the historical park that was developed in These locations provide a nice overview of the area s history, and explain how the region played a national role in copper production for over 1 years. To gain a deeper understanding of the area s past, stop at a local historical society or museum. Most communities have at least one, and sometimes more. Many of these organizations are run by volunteers, who often make visits more memorable by sharing local knowledge and stories. If an underground mine tour sounds appealing, venture into the three the has to offer. Each provides a different perspective worth investigating. If learning about people s lives is of interest, then a historic home tour might top your list. Visit the homes of early copper miners, farmers, and mining captains to see how different people lived. Maybe recreational opportunities are high on your agenda, in which case, stop at the two fantastic state parks that book end the Peninsula. Each offers abundant recreational opportunities that include camping, hiking, fishing, and relaxing, not to mention the glimpse of an earlier way of life that those activities provide. The has countless sites of interest and beauty picturesque lighthouses, refreshingly cool copper mines, historic main streets, rocky shorelines, and miles of hiking and biking trails turned ski and snowmobile trails in the winter. It is a good place to wander and explore at your own pace. All ages are welcome and each season top: Visitors explore the former homes of copper miners at Old Victoria near Rockland, one of the Heritage Sites. bottom: The Eagle Harbor Lighthouse not only guides ships on Superior, but also serves as a focal point for the County Historical Society s museums another Heritage Site. NPS Photos offers something different. Enjoy National Historical Park, the Heritage Sites and the rest of the Peninsula and see what they have to offer!

Most of the property within the units is privately owned. Please respect private property. As the park continues to develop, additional services and facilities will become available. Calumet Unit The Calumet Unit of the park focuses on the preservation and interpretation of buildings and sites associated with the former Calumet & Hecla Copper Mining Company (C&H). C&H grew into the largest and most successful copper mining company in the Superior region. C&H s key to fortune was its location on the copper-rich Calumet Conglomerate Lode. The Coppertown Mining Museum, a Heritage Site, is located in the former C&H pattern shop and features exhibits on the Calumet & Hecla mine and life in Calumet. Located next to C&H s mining operations was the village of Red Jacket (now known as Calumet). Red Jacket s businesses, institutions and people were directly tied to the Calumet & Hecla Mining Company. Though copper mining eventually ceased, many buildings and features from this boom time remain. Several Heritage Sites are located in the Village of Calumet including the Heritage Center at St. Anne s, the Calumet Theatre and the U.P. Firefighters Memorial Museum in the historic Red Jacket Fire Station. Information on the park is available at our headquarters, located at 2597 Red Jacket Road. Quincy Unit Within the park s Quincy Unit are former Quincy Mining Company properties, including mine shafts, hoist houses and the copper smelting complex on the shore of Portage. Much of Quincy Mine was designated a National Historic Landmark District in Quincy MineTours, a Heritage Site, is a key part of the unit and provides guided tours of the underground mine and hoist house. Visitors can also explore the #2 shaft-rockhouse and around many surface ruins. The National Park Service operates a seasonal information desk in the entryway to the gift shop.

5 Quincy Marks Milestones This year marks three significant milestones related to the Quincy Mining Company: 16 years ago, the company incorporated in Marshall, Michigan; 1 years ago, the company built the No. 2 shaft-rockhouse on top of the hill; and 5 years ago, the Quincy Mine Hoist Association (QMHA) organized to preserve Quincy s mining history. While these anniversaries may seem of passing interest, a deeper look reveals how they speak to the value of perseverance, ingenuity, and foresight. One of the most important producers in the Superior copper district, the Quincy Mining Company actually resulted from a misunderstanding. In 1846, officials issued leases to the same piece of land north of Portage to two different mining companies. To resolve the dispute, the two enterprises joined and formed a third Quincy, which incorporated in Men cleared trees, built modest structures, and dug exploratory shafts, but work progressed slowly. Investors grew impatient. Miners finally encountered a promising copper vein in 1854, which they enthusiastically named the Quincy lode, but it proved to be a disappointment. By now, the patience of stockholders was being tested. Then, the company literally hit pay dirt. Miners traced the copper-rich Pewabic lode onto Quincy s property. The company shifted all of its operations to the Pewabic by 1858, which it mined for the next 87 years. After teetering on the verge of collapse for nearly a decade, Quincy became one of the most significant copper mines in the country, boasting at one point the deepest shafts in the United States and a remarkably consistent history of paying dividends. Quincy s willingness to adopt new technologies that enabled miners to work deeper underground and produce more ore partly helped its regularity in issuing dividends. One such innovation remains highly visible today: the No. 2 shaft-rockhouse on top of Quincy Hill. In earlier operations, the shaft house where men descended underground and ore was brought to the surface was separate from the rock house where ore was initially crushed and sorted before going to the stamp mill for further processing. Bottlenecks often occurred because a single rock house processed ore from many shafts. Shaft-rockhouses combined these functions, making operations more efficient. No. 2 was not the first shaft-rockhouse in the region, nor was it even the first at Quincy, but it remains a towering reminder of the benefits of creative problem solving. These structures and the stories they reveal might only be memories had it not been for the foresight of the Quincy Mine Hoist Association. Organized 5 years ago by Quincy s directors and others associated with the company, the Association s mission was to commemorate the company s history by saving the steam hoist, specially designed for the No. 2 shaft and an engineering marvel in its own right. Its mandate has broadened over time, and now includes the preservation and interpretation of the mine site to visitors. The structures and ruins on Quincy Hill help residents and visitors alike to understand and appreciate the region s mining history. Without the early and consistent commitment of the QMHA to preserve these significant structures, the hilltop might look very different than it does today. 16 years ago, a small mining company persevered through disappointment to become a giant in the copper industry. 1 years ago, it invested in shaft-rockhouses and huge machinery to increase production in the face of rising costs and competition. 5 years ago, a group of people recognized the importance of this history, and saved the mine hoist as an example of the company s achievements. Today, the Quincy Mine Hoist Association, in partnership with the National Park Service, continues to protect significant resources that remind us of our history and values as a community, region, and nation for both the present and future generations.

NHP Archives, Koepel Collection Union Building Receives a New Lease on Life Today, many people associate fraternal organizations with mysterious events, such as those that make up the plots of movies like National Treasure. In the past, however, these organizations played an major role in daily life. In 1889, two fraternal organizations the Free and Accepted Masons and the Independent Order of Odd Fellows joined forces to build a lodge hall on Fifth Street in Calumet. The Union Building received its name because of this joint enterprise. The Calumet & Hecla Mining Company donated land for the project, revealing its interest in shaping local society and supporting a stable, productive and loyal workforce. Fraternal organizations fall into two broad categories: secret orders and benefit societies. The secret orders, such as the Free Masons and Odd Fellows, functioned chiefly as social clubs with an emphasis on ritual and ceremony to teach moral values. Benefit or aid societies often employed secret rituals as well, but were primarily organized to provide life insurance and other forms of financial support to members. Many fraternal groups, particularly benefit societies, were organized along ethnic lines. Some had specific religious or denominational requirements, while membership in others was determined by economic standing. From the mid 18s to the early 19s, more than 8 fraternal organizations were established in the United States. By 192, an estimated fifty percent of all Americans belonged to at least one fraternal group. While many admitted men only, there were also women s organizations, such as Pythian Sisters and Order of the Eastern Star. For over 8 years, more than twenty of these fraternal groups held regular meetings in Calumet s Union Building. These groups provide a picture of the village s social landscape, including the different ethnicities, religious denominations, and social classes that made up the community. The very number of these groups also reveals how large the area s population once was. By the time Calumet & Hecla closed its doors in 1969, the downturn in area mining had forced many to leave for opportunities elsewhere. Many fraternal lodges consolidated, while others closed altogether. In 1978, an area resident purchased the Union Building, using it for both a residence and business. Lack of routine maintenance over the years caused deterioration. In 1999, the National Park Service purchased the Union Building with the longrange goal of making it a visitor facility. National Historical Park completed the first phase of the building s rehabilitation by stabilizing and restoring its exterior in 25. This year, the park received funding to begin planning the interior rehabilitation. Deciding how to restore the various rooms and determining the best locations for rest rooms, an interior stairway and an elevator for accessibility will be part of the planning process. Concepts for exhibits and a visitor orientation area will also be developed. With additional funding, the actual work on the interior can begin. If all goes well, this historic building will open its doors to the public in 211. Visitors will then have a place to reflect on the connection between mining companies, communities and people, as well as the role of copper mining in our heritage.
