Nay-Osh-Ing  Chapter

National Society
Daughters of the American Revolution

Origin of Our Chapter 

Organized in 1973, the Chapter selected the Chippewa name Nay-osh-ing meaning "the point." Located on the Wisconsin River just north of Stevens Point, this point was important because it was the first site north of Petenwell Rock in Adams County where the Indians were able to cross the river on foot or horseback because of a rock formation, on an underwater ledge which stretches across the river.
