The town of Pepin, Wisconsin was originally built on First Street, which can be seen in the picture below.  After the railroad was put in town it brought with it a problem.  The railroad coming through scared the horses.  The main part of town was then moved to 2nd Street.

This is First Street, in the town of Pepin, next to the Mississippi
River. It still looks much the same as it did in Laura's time.
