Chief Joseph, Marguerite & Joseph Osaugie were all buried on Wisconsin Point. A sign was placed by the Superior Indian Organization designating it as the Indian Cemetery.

There is also a stone marker (in St Francis Cemetery) which states "Here lies the bodies from Wisconsin Point removed in 1918."

They were removed by United States Steel, so they could build a dock on the point.
