For information about your trip to Beaver Dam, go to: http://www.50states.com/city/wisconsin.htm Click on the community of Beaver Dam. The library in Beaver Dam is across the street and down a little from the Beaver Dam Middle School. Easy to find. Also easy to find is the Horicon Library, whose librarians I have found to be very pleasant and helpful. Beaver Dam has marriage and death indexes kept in ring binders behind the circulation desk. All the newspaper microfilm is readily accessible, but you have to sign up for a one-hour block of time on the only microfilm reader. Usually not a problem. I was the only one using it the other day when I was there. Good luck with your research. All the biographies from the the two volumes of the History of Northern Wisconsin and the History of Dodge County are online at the GenExchange Wisconsin site. (URL below, click on biographies). Have a nice trip!
