Hmm. Where to look? Just figure out which of these statements is correct and we'll let you know:
Lake county's original name was Aishcum after a local Native American chief. After 6 treaties used 6 different spellings since nobody could seem to spell Aishcum the same way the county's name was changed to Lake in 1843 for its many lakes. N 44 07.922 W 086 02.333
Lake county's original name was Aishcum after a 19th century Jello flavor. Since nobody liked that flavor of Jello anyway the county's name was changed to Lake in 1943 to honor the actress Veronica Lake. N 44 07.850 W 086 02.385
