Treaties, Ed. of 1873, Vol. 1, p. 607). He was succeeded by his son 'Pay-Baw-Me-Say' who took his father's name and who also died in this cabin, about the year 1882. Soon thereafter the cabin was burned by a company of hunters." Preservation Between 1883 and 1887, the property on Club Point (the northernmost peninsula of Marquette Island) passed from the heirs of Shab-wa-way, through several temporary owners into the ownership of William L. Benham who purchased Club Point in 1888. Benham, Alfred E. Bousfield, and other investors, mostly from Bay City, MI, formed the Les Cheneaux Club, which attracted summer cottagers seeking to escape the heat and humidity of Chicago and other midwestern cities. The Club grounds contain a number of large summer homes which remain the most conspicuous feature of Marquette Island. Among the early members of the Club was the family of Aldo Leopold, who spent his childhood summers in the woods and waters of the Les Cheneaux Islands. Five separate parcels of Island property have been dedicated as nature preserves. In 2022 the newest such parcel, the 130-acre Kathy Bricker Nature Lover Preserve, was set aside. The new Preserve is a land parcel adjacent to the 1,683-acre Aldo Leopold Nature Preserve, the largest conservancy parcel on the Island. Both parcels are overseen by the Little Traverse Conservancy, a Northern Michigan private-sector land conservancy group.
