Anderson Dock

Transportation
4
Aslag Anderson, a Norwegian-born mill-wright, built this store and dock in 1858. The dock served as the transportation center for this area from the sailing days through the steamship era in the 1920's. On Anderson's death in 1892, two of his children, Adolph and Lizzie, took over management of the store and dock. In 1952, the dock was acquired by the village and, with the aid of the Ephraim Foundation, was restored to its present condition. Aslag, Adolph, and Lizzie Anderson made the dock and store deeply meaningful to Ephraim.
