"Jacksonport Lakview
Cemetery"
Welcome to Jacksonport
Lakeview Cemetery in Door County.
Jacksonport Lakeview Cemetery is also known as the Jacksonport
Town Cemetery.
The Township of Jacksonport was officially organized on March
9th, 1869. Historical accounts state that a tribe of Potawatomi
Indians lived in their village, “Mechingan”, in the
area of Hibbard’s Creek many years previous. Around 1850, the
first white man, Neil Blair, settled here.
Commercial fishing and lumbering were important industries here.
During the 1870’s there were two general stores, a meat
market, two blacksmith shops, two wagon shops, a sawmill, two
hotels, taverns and a boarding house.
