In 1849 grand plans were made to purchase 51,000 acres in Wisconsin. Land there was available for 5 shillings an acre. With individual subscriptions and society levies the Potter's Union managed to raise money to buy an initial 4,000 acres of land. This was to be divided in lots of 20 acres. The new colony in Wisconsin became known as Pottersville. Lotteries were held to select emigrants at the meat market in Tontine Street. [see history page for more]
