1118 WILD RICE GATHERERS OF UPPER LAKES [ETH. ANN. 19 
The following year, 1838, Mitchell gives’ this last village as 
Mennomonieville. 
There are in Wisconsin numerous cities and stations which bear their 
name because of the presence of wild rice in their vicinity, as follows: 
Menomonee, in Menomonee township, Waukesha county. 
Menomonee Falls, in Menomonee township, Waukesha county. 
Menomonie, in Dunn county. 
Menomonie Junction, in Dunn county, although this may be the 
Menomoniede, in Dunn county, as given on a map in 1896." 
North Menomonie, in Dunn county. 
Rice Lake, on Rice lake, in Stanford township, Barron county. 
South Rice Lake, on Rice lake, in Stanford township, Barron 
county. 
Rice Lake, in Langlade county. 
Riceville, in Washington county. 
Nenamonee, on Red Cedar river in Dunn county.* 
Minnesota also has a small number of rice cities, stations, etc, as 
follows: 
Manomin, in Manomin township, Anoka county (Illustrated Histor- 
ical Atlas of the State of Minnesota, 1874, Chicago). 
Rice Lake, in Dodge county near Rice lake in Clearmont township, 
Steele county (ibid.). 
Rice, in Zumbrota township, Goodhue county (Goodhue County 
Plat Book, 1894). . 
Riceford, on Riceford creek, in Spring Grove township, Houston 
county (Houston County Plat Book, 1878). 
Manotnin, at the mouth of Rice river in Ramsey county (Blanch- 
ard’s Map of the North Western States, Chicago, 1866). 
Rice T\own), at Sandy lake, probably in present Aitkin county 
(Map of the United States, ete., John Melish, 1816). 
Manannah, on Crow river, in Meeker county (Sectional Map of the 
Surveyed Portion of Minnesota and the North Western Part of Wis- 
consin, 1860). 
Rice City, south of the preceding in Meeker county (ibid). 
Rivers, Crerks, LAKES, AND PoNnps 
Rivers, creeks, lakes, and ponds in the territory under considera- 
tion which bear the name Rice, or some of its various synonyms, 
present unmistakable evidence that at some time such waters grew 
wild rice (it is, of course, recognized that such a name could have 
been given in honor of some person, but an effort has been made to 
exclude all such from the list). The names which follow, therefore, 
tell their own tale:

Lloyd's New Map of the United States, the Canadas, ete, (1862).
