Odell shaped Green County Swiss cheese history and records

Emery A. Odell founder of The Monroe Evening Times richened Wisconsin dairy lore by researching and publishing The Swiss Cheese Industry in 1936 and documenting Bilten settlers and early plants. His 1949 histories and 1939 site markers preserved cheese era milestones from Washington township to Monroe, with legacies in libraries and the University of Wisconsin archives.
