The transport ship USS Oconto was built in 1944 and named after our county. It carried troops, freed POW's, cargo, and mail in the Pacific. The "Mytee O" was removed from service in 1946 after sailing over 100,000 miles.

In 1900 a registered mid-wife delivered most of the babies in Frenchtown (western area of Oconto) for a fee of $5. That covered delivering the baby and remaining with the mother and baby for nine days.
