The State of Wisconsin looked very different in the not so distant past. In 1936, Wisconsin wasn't even a state. It was mostly unbroken wilderness, inhabited by less than 20,000. That would all change soon enough. As pioneering settlers moved in, the Native Americans were pushed out. Wigwams were replaced with homesteads.<br />

John H. Frank was one such pioneer. Mr. Frank was born in Akron, Ohio in 1871. His family moved to Kent City, Michigan when he was still a small child. At the tender age of 12, John struck out to make his own way by earning his own living as a farm hand. He must have had a little wanderlust in him and before long he had relocated to Washinton to learn the Blacksmith Trade. He traveled for some years in this manner before heading to Eagle River, Wisconsin, where he worked in Sawmills and lumber camps. Eventually, he gave up the art of Blacksmith to set up a homestead. That homestead is known as Summerwind Mansion today.<br />
<br />
John and his wife Alma worked to convert that homestead into a Summer Camp. During those years, vacationers would take a train from the city, intent on relaxing in the woods. They ran West Bay Lake Resort for years before selling the property to Robert P. Lamont.<br />

I believe John Frank still had a bit of wanderlust in him and after he sold the property, he drove by motor car to the Pacific Coast and spent a year, By today's standards of a car, that doesn't sound like much of an accomplishment. However, if you take a look at a 1917 car and road image, that puts a whole new spin on his travels.</div>

That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet? ~ Shakespeare<div dir="ltr">
And that which we call a mansion by any other name would be as haunted?</div>
<div dir="ltr">
Although all that remains of the once beautiful home is the chimneys and the foundation, it is still referred to as Summerwind Mansion. The property is surrounded by myth and legend leading most people to believe it has always been known as Summerwind.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
Except it hasn't...<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
The home now known as Summerwind Mansion was originally built by John H. Frank. Mr. Frank turned his homestead into a summer camp resort that consisted of one main lodge and four cabins. He named his camp West Bay Lake Resort and advertised in various new papers, including Kansas City, MO.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Robert P. Lamont purchased the camp and property, turning it into a summer home for his family around 1917. The Lamont family referred to the property as Lilac Hills due to the large lilac bushes around the home. It was Lamont that had the home completely remodeled into what has become the mansion so widely recognized today.<br />
<br />
Summerwind Mansion was not a household name and was not known as Summerwind until after December 1979 and it was started with one man deciding to write a book.<br />
<br />
In the 1970's, America was gripped with paranormal obsession. The obsession had begun in earnest with "The Exorcist" Madness in 1975. No, <b><i>madness</i></b> is not a word I just threw in there for shock value. The Exorcist Madness is a well-documented phenomenon that occurred after the release of the movie. </div>

<i><span style="color: #999999;">In a quiet Beverly Hills, Calif., neighborhood, residents have been awakened at dawn as thousands of people gather for an 8 a.m. showing at a theater seating 1,450. Every day 5,000 moviegoers stand in the long queue wrapped around the Sack 57 Cinema in Boston. Four Manhattan theaters have lines extending for blocks from noon to midnight. In its first five weeks, The Exorcist (TIME, Jan. 14-21) has rung up more than $10 million at box office cash registers in 20 cities. Glowing —and gloating—Warner Bros, executives predict that it will easily top the all time money maker ."</span></i></div>
<br />
And it is still a top, all-time money maker. "The Exorcist" had broke records that no one had dreamed possible. In the mist of all of this, Bodyguards had to be hired to protect Linda Blair from religious leaders who felt the film glorified Satan. A PR campaign followed the film, including a public tour explaining that it was in fact, JUST A MOVIE and she wasn't actually possessed. America appears to have lost all reasoning ability with the release of this film: moviegoers fainted, vomited and checked themselves into mental hospitals around the country. Medical case studies followed. What also followed was a lot of money. </div>

<div class="entry-content group" style="line-height: 1.57143em; margin-bottom: 34px;">
<br />
<br />
On the heels of "The Exorcist" release was the releasing of the now controversial book, "Amityville Horror". By summer of 1979 "Amityville Horror " had gone through 12 publishings, sold over 6 million copies and released a movie by the same name. This was all just the beginning of a huge and very successful money making franchise. </div>
<div dir="ltr">
The public couldn't get enough Paranormal and in December 1979, Wolfgang Von Bober published "The Carver Effect ", thus etching the name of Summerwind Mansion into minds for eternity. Unfortunately, "The Carver Effect" was not the commercial success that <i>"The Exorcist"</i> and "Amityville Horror" had become but it did put a little-known home in Land O' Lakes, Wisconsin on the map.<br />
<br />
The mansion has changed hands several times in the more recent history. Many stories have been told about the property. Sadly, it is the same tired stories told again and again. They do seem to become more embellished as new storytellers enter the scene.<br />
<br />
Through the years and all of the books that have been published, I have seen very little citations recorded on the sources for the information regarding Summerwind Mansion. That is where I started with my research. Not only did I want to know the actual history of this beautiful property, I wanted to know what or who was the original source. I had to trace it down for myself and decide if I considered the source to be credible. I have now made my decision, although I continue to track down forks in the road that I have found along the way.. However, you will have to make your own decision. You may follow the links and information to make your own educated decision or you can continue to be spoon-fed the same old tired stories. </div>

As the foremost expert on the history of Summerwind Manson, I would like to express that while I am greatly honored, that title has come with a price. Many, many countless hours has gone in to the research and compiling of the information, as I have found more forks in the road than dead ends. However, reading and memorizing alone does not make one an expert. To understand the role of an historian, we must consider many things.</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<b><a href="http://casualhistorian.com/" target="_blank">The Casual Historian</a></b> has a very informative post that goes farther into detail that <a href="http://casualhistorian.com/what-is-a-historian/">you can read here.</a> This post will serve only to highlight key elements taken from that. <br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div align="left">
<div dir="ltr">
<h3>
<b>To be an “objective historian,” you must meet the following qualifications:</b></h3>
</div>
</div>
<div align="left">
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div dir="ltr">
<i>The Historian must treat sources with the appropriate reservations</i><br />
<i><br /></i></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<i>The Historian must not dismiss counter-evidence without scholarly consideration</i><br />
<i><br /></i></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<i>The Historian must be even-handed in treatment of evidence and eschew “cherry-picking”</i><br />
<i><br /></i></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<i>The Historian must clearly indicate any speculation</i><br />
<i><br /></i></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<i>The Historian must not mistranslate documents, or mislead by omitting parts of documents</i><br />
<i><br /></i></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<i>The Historian must weigh the authenticity of all accounts, not merely those that contradict a favored view</i><br />
<i><br /></i></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<i>The Historian must take the motives of historical actors into consideration</i></div>
<div dir="ltr">
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<br />
<h3>
<b>Can a Historian be self-taught? </b></h3>
<br />
"Should historians be formally trained, or must they be self-taught? This must be answered. A large number of people who are currently recognized as historians would no longer be so. The earliest known historians such as Herodotus, Bede, and Ibn Khaldun, were all self-taught. It wasn’t until the 19th century that history truly became its own subject. Edward Gibbon, the author of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, was self-taught but is often referred to as the first modern historian. More recent historians such as David McCullough, David Barton, and Ron Chernow are also self-taught. If we are to exclude self-taught people from the definition of “historian”, we are going to be removing a large portion of the western canon of history."<br />
<br />
<br />
While it is true that I do not have a Degree in History, I am a Certified Paralegal. Paralegals have extensive training in research and are also trained to fact check all information to verify that the original source is creditable. I just happen to be a Paralegal with a passion for Historical Research. With a legal minded approach, you find yourself not just accepting what others tell you or what you read. It forces you to dig a little deeper for the truth. I encourage each and everyone of you to do a little digging on your own. I will include links to all my sources but i urge you to not blindly accept my words as truth. Do your own research and decide for yourself what the truth really is. <br />

For decades this lake side property has been reported as haunted. Some even claim in is inhabited by Demonic Spirits. I personally believe it's not Demons that are attracted to the mansion. This beautiful place is infested with Vampires and has been for many, many years. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Accusations of the burning of Summerwind Mansion being the act of arson have recently come to light. I would like to stress that this is not the position of this writer. As you can see in images online of the mansion prior to it burning, it was in VERY poor condition and had been vandalized many times. It was a fire hazard. Regardless, the city officials did not fill a private property with hay bails and set it on fire. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the coming weeks, I'll explain these statements in greater detail and also introduce the "Cast of Characters" that have been involved with this property.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next week we will introduce <b><i>Summerwind Mansion</i></b> and these accusations in greater detail. </span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/"><img alt="Creative Commons License" style="border-width:0" src="https://i.creativecommons.org/l/by-nc-nd/4.0/88x31.png" /></a><br />This work is licensed under a <a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License</a>.</div>Nyoka the Jungle Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13060100536240242142noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777146509060739759.post-67863133813340050732017-11-10T14:09:00.000-08:002017-11-10T14:09:19.678-08:00Please stand by......New post coming soon!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/"><img alt="Creative Commons License" style="border-width:0" src="https://i.creativecommons.org/l/by-nc-nd/4.0/88x31.png" /></a><br />This work is licensed under a <a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License</a>.</div>Nyoka the Jungle Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13060100536240242142noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-777146509060739759.post-59905360900660360172015-02-07T11:42:00.002-08:002015-04-26T22:22:18.790-07:00Joshua Chaires will no longer be involved with Summerwind Restoration SocietyFor reasons unknown to the core members, Joshua Chaires has made a public announcement stating he will no longer be involved with the Summerwind Restoration Society (SRS).<br />
<br />
The reason he gave in his announcement was a difference of opinions; stating his goal was to rebuild all of the pre-existing buildings. SRS has set our goal as rebuilding the main home as the initial build due to funding restrictions. SRS was unaware of any issues or problems in regards to the core people involved in the project,<br />
<br />
Summerwind Restoration Society regrets that Joshua feels that the core members are not progressing as he feels we should. We also regret that he did not communicate his desires in a more appropriate manner that could have resulted in agreement instead of the resulted discourse.<br />
<br />
SRS would like to thank Joshua for the work he had done for the project. We wish him well as he travels his chosen path.<br />

Turns out this marriage wasn't the "Happily Ever After" we all hope for when tying that knot. <br /><br /><br />Twenty years after her wedding, an $300,000 "Alienation of Affection" suit was brought against her by Mrs. Justa Jones. Mrs. Jones claimed that Gertrude stole the love of her life and married him. <br /><br /><br />The case ended in mistrial and dismissed when the judge ruled that Mrs. Jones' counsel asked an improper question of Mr. Jones. <br /><br /><br />What question was deemed "improper'? The counsel asked Mr. Jones if he had written the quote, "the privilege of your body is a rare favor", on the margin of a book that Gertrude had presented to him as a gift while she was married to Charles Saltzman. Defense objected and Judge James Kirkland declared a mistrial.<div>

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/379217925559059/" target="_blank">SRS</a> project is still in the early stages of planning. A small group comprised of Joshua Chaires, Craig Nehring along with the members of <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/122544501098728/" target="_blank">Fox Valley Ghost Hunters</a> is working with Harold and Babs to complete the needed ground work for the rebuild.</span></h3>

<h4>
<i>Please remember that nothing is completely agreed upon at this time. We are still in the early stages and may need to make changes as we progress. </i></h4>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>What is the plan? </b><br />
Harold and Babs have expressed their desire to rebuild the mansion into a Bed and Breakfast. This would make the property easily accessible to the public as it once was during the resort period of it's history.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>How will it look? </b><br />
Imagine the main home as it was finished for the Lamont family...now you get the idea. We intend to rebuilt the main home portion with the same appearance and glory of it's early years. Please keep in mind that some modification will need to be made due to the changing of building materials and codes and also depending on what the home will be ultimately used for. The outside of the home will look as it did previously, before time had her grasp on the old girl. </div>

<b>What is SRS currently working on? </b><br />
Spreading the word! We have been featured in many news articles (Thank you Joshua and others) and we will be guests on<a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10152520284802061&set=gm.1517933695159265&type=1" target="_blank"> Paranormal Princess Radio on February 9th</a> (Thank you to <a href="https://www.facebook.com/NorthernWisconsinParanormalSociety" target="_blank">Northern Wisconsin Paranormal Society</a>).<br />
<br />
We are seeking estimates for the structure and laying the ground work to apply for 501(c)(3) status.<br />
