Best Answer

Wisconsin became a state on 29 May 1848. The Menominee were in the area long before that date - they were first seen by explorers in the 1600s and their own traditions place them in the same area for the past 1,000 years. They did not "come to Wisconsin" - Wisconsin came to them, they were there first.

How many were Menominee code talkers were there?

The Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin (MITW) has five (5) tribal members officially recognized by the federal government as serving as code talkers in WWII. They were honored in November 2013 in a ceremony in Washington, D.C. along with 211 other code talkers from 31 other tribes. It is important to note that there were other tribes than just the Navajo who served as code talkers. In May 2014 the five were honored by the Veterans of the Menominee Nation (VMN) and the Menominee Indian Tribe at the 25th annual Gathering of Warriors Powwow in Keshena, Wisconsin. Family members of the Menominee code talkers were presented with medals specially designed for the code talkers by the U.S. Mint. They also were presented with an eagle feather by VMN and danced to a special honor song for them at the ceremony. VMN and Department of Defense are continuing their research on other Menominee tribal members who served as code talkers. The ongoing research shows there maybe four to five other tribal members who served and/or trained as code talkers.
