HISTORY OF DOOR COUNTY NORTH
Liberty Grove, the largest town in Door County, may be divided into three parts.

In the center, east and northeast of Sister Bay, is a large Swedish settlement with a few Norwegians mixed in…
So begins the 100-year-old description of Liberty Grove and the surrounding region, the township whose economic interests are now represented by the Door County North business association, as stated in Hjalmar R. Holand’s two-volume edition of History of Door County, Wisconsin, The County Beautiful, originally published in 1917.
