Reedsburg is in Sauk County, which is right next door to Portage Wisconsin. There were a bunch of Hickey's who moved in there from, possibly from Ballycorp, county Mayo. Since I've been chasing down Patrick Hickey, I haven't come across any other names as of yet. I'm hoping to get a census CD for that era. It maybe a slim chance, but something to look into..
