There are a handful of people who have lost their homes. As it is about to get colder outside if you have any extra jackets, mittens, hats, etc. please donate them to those in need. We are with you Green Bay. #GBFire1880

Let us all rejoice that the fire has been stopped! Amazing work by all of the firemen who have saved so many lives and buildings today. #update #lettherebuildingbegin #GBfire1880 https://t.co/4BpejIKniA

@BS200789 @1880emorrow Although my Henry is gone, his influence is still strong. I have contacted people who may be able to help with the relief efforts. Waiting to hear back from most but we need to stay hopeful. #positivity #GBfire1880

@1880DFollett is there any new information on the fire? Hoping everyone is okay. #needtoknow #GBfire1880

[Elizabeth Baird @1880EBaird]

Mon Dieu. Just got word of the fire in Green Bay. My heart goes out to all of those in the path of the fire. May the firefighters be able to stop it before it destroys anything more. #sendinggoodthoughts #GBfire1880

@lisonStaudinger Modern historians like @GBFDhistory (David Siegel) will say it is a myth. The Peshtigo fire was started by multiple fires that happened at the same time in different areas. #gbfire1880

Quel Dommage. The dry weather we have had reminds me of the day of the Peshtigo fire. I can’t believe it's almost been 9 years. #remembrance #GBfire1880

Spending the day with my daughters, Eliza and Louise today. We ventured through the heat and wind into town for a little bit and had a wonderful time. #windycity #happymom #GBfire1880
