The Historic Indian Agency House is an organization that preserves the 1832 home and stories of Indian Agent John Kinzie and his wife, Juliette. Juliette wrote what is today considered one of the best firsthand descriptions of early frontier Wisconsin. The stories passed down through her book, Wau-Bun even helped inspire her granddaughter, Juliette Gordon Low (aka Daisy) to found the Girl Scouts!
