I know that at one time Sturgeon Bay was called Otumba. Does anyone know what that name means? But as my family story goes (see herman taube posting) it's always been believed that Sturgeon Bay was once called Sawyer.

I know that there's a County called Sawyer, but is there a town? Does anyone have any clarifying info on this twist in the story?

any help, or a point in the right direction would be great.
Thanks so much,
A.
