Sawyer County, located in the great state of Wisconsin, was established on March 9, 1883, and named in honor of Philetus Sawyer. He was a prominent businessman, Wisconsin State Senator, and member of the United States House of Representatives from 1865-1875. Known for its abundant natural resources, the county has a rich history rooted in logging and the fur trade.
Before European settlers arrived, the region was primarily inhabited by the Ojibwe (also known as Chippewa) Native American tribe. With the arrival of European fur traders and settlers, the economy in the region began to shift towards the timber industry in the 1800s as vast forests of white pine attracted loggers.
The opening of lumber mills in the late 1800s spurred economic growth in the area. The City of Hayward, now the county seat, was incorporated in 1883 and initially functioned as a hub for the logging industry. The city was named after Anthony Judson Hayward, who built a sawmill that became crucial to the town's development.
As the logging industry waned in the early 20th century, the county's economy transitioned to support growing tourism and recreational opportunities. Today, Sawyer County is known for its picturesque lakes and rivers, which provide prime locations for various recreational activities such as fishing, boating, and camping.
Fun fact: Sawyer County is home to the Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame in Hayward. This unique museum hosts the world's largest fiberglass sculpture, a massive four-and-a-half story-tall muskie fish, which visitors can climb into and view the surrounding area from its open mouth.
