Sources

  1. Beaver Beacon, August 1961, “Dr. Protar’s Last Will and Testament.”
    Reports that A. J. Roy received an abstract of title to Protar’s land from Louis Fochtman and that the abstract included Protar’s 1919 will. It prints excerpts about Protar’s requested burial and estate values, says Michigan law prevented a marine burial, and says the complete will could be seen at the Beaver Island Museum. The article is a transcription/summary, not the original will or title record.
