One business endeavor that was slow to take off was creameries. First there was a shortage of skilled laborers to operate one, It was also hampered by a lack of dairy cows. This did not deter the Wemple brothers of Milford to establish the Lakeshore Creamery. A substantial amount money was invested in the buildings and machinery. One family member stated that the brothers’ father, Joseph C. Wemple (1830-1921) that  subsidized it. This was a short lived operation that operated from 1903-04. As David Wemple stated about the venture was too many bosses between the brothers and no one to do the work.
