}}Shopiere is an unincorporated community in the Town of Turtle, in Rock County, Wisconsin, United States.[1][2]

History

The community was originally named Waterloo.[4] The first settlement was made in the 1830s by a colony from Connecticut.[3] The present name is derived from chaux pierre, French for limestone, which is abundant in the area.[4]

Notable people

The community was the last home of Louis P. Harvey, the short-lived governor of Wisconsin, who drowned bringing medical supplies to wounded troops near the Civil War Battle of Shiloh in 1862.[5]
