Property: Feutz Cannonville Cheese Factory
Contact: Janet
 

Built in 1915, by Chris Feutz, the Cannonville Cheese Factory was in the town of Washburn. The Cannonville community was centered at the Hwy. 73 and Cty. Trunk "K" intersection. Feutz was a Swiss immigrant who had learned the cheese making trade in his homeland. The second floor of the the factory building provided living quarters for the Feutz family. Mrs. Feutz was the Cannonville news correspondent many years for the Clark Co. Press of Neillsville, Wisconsin.

The former cheese factory building was later used as a blacksmith shop, owned by a Spiegel. This photo was from the collection of Lynn Feutz.
