Unincorporated community in Wisconsin, United States
Tonet's welcome sign
Tonet ( toh-NET [2] unincorporated community in the towns of Red River and Luxemburg , Kewaunee County , Wisconsin , United States .[3] m ),[3] [4]
History
[ edit ]
The community started as the neighboring community later to be called Champion grew. When the original log church of St. Joseph at Champion was destroyed by fire in 1874, a dispute then arose between the Flemish and the Walloon Belgians, as to where to rebuild the church.
[5] [6]
Initially when it was established as a community, the place was known as Martinsville, after St. Martin's church.[7] [8]
The proposed post office in 1887 was supposed to be Jonet, after Peter Jonet the first postmaster. However the clerk in charge of postmaster appointments department mistook the J for a T.[9] [10]
