Time Line

1910. A party of ten men are at work pumping water from the old Oneco mine preparatory to the resumption of operations there. [CN-1910-1119]

1912. A investigation is being conducted by the Osceola township board into the merits of a proposed highway, to run from the southeast part of the township near the Oneco mine, through the township to Torch Lake incline, then through Torch Lake township into Calumet township. The road would open new farmland and provide a way for farmers to market their product. [CN-1912-0327]
