James Jackson Beeman built a cabin at Buzzard Springs in the fall/winter of 1842/43 .

There also may have been a CCC or WPA structure built there.

from what I can Glean
Buzzard Springs may be the Lake Wahoo area.
a dam was built and a private club established there in the 1880s.
A couple of small streams also feed the lake. It has been drained and filled in and is now part of Juanita Craft Park.
