[dba-Tech] Outlook multiuser

"How the name "Neenah," came to be attached to the locality is attributed to
Governor Doty, who meeting with a band of Indians one day, pointed to the
river and asked, "what is that?" The Indians answered, "Neenah" being their
word for water. Doty liked the word and applied it to the region."
