Their names are John and Margarite Bagley, They have lived there most of their lives. John was a truck driver, so they did move off and on, but always came back "Home". I really like it there. Lots of good Pheasent hunting!

Lloyd1911

I'll talk to my mom and see if she's heard of them.

And yeah, its pretty good....kinda spotty though. Damn out-of-state hunters are ruining it for us.

It looks like that is what Huhtamaki does as well. From their web page:

Between 1997 and 2001, Huhtamaki acquired 14 packaging companies, including the major U.S. company Sealright in 1998 and the Dutch packaging giant Van Leer in 1999.

From late 1999 until the sale of the industrial packaging division of Van Leer in early 2001, the company was known as Huhtamaki Van Leer. As a pure consumer packaging specialist, it chose to return to its original name and start developing Huhtamaki into a leading business-to-business brand in consumer packaging.

Huhtamaki proudly bears the name of the company's founder, Mr. Heikki Huhtamäki. Huhtamäki, meaning a burnt-beaten clearing on a hillside, is a common last name in Western Finland, where the Huhtamäki family has prospered for more than 300 years.

Finnish, not Japanese!
