I found this, it may help: the Iron Co. website: http://www.rootsweb.com/~wiiron/index.htm ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Holmquist" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, February 16, 2003 4:52 PM Subject: [GenWisc] Viscous rumor, death of Susan Lahti Knuutila Gobie. Hi Folks Would someone on the list please help me and my family ascertain if a viscous rumor (listed below) about the death of our grandmother, Susan Lahti Knuutila Gobie, is true or false? In the winter of 1911 or 1912 in Iron County, WI, perhaps in the town of Montreal, Susan was found lying in the snow. The family rumor is that she fell into a snow bank, passed out from drinking too much liquor and froze to death. Grandma would have been about 50 years old when this happened. Maybe someone wrote an article in the local newspaper describing the incident. I've been unable to find a death certificate for Susan. Is it possible that someone could help me with this, also? My family and I would sincerely appreciate any information concerning this rumor Thank you!! Sincerely yours, Ron Holmquist 133 Bienville Rd Folsom, LA 70437. ==== GenWisconsin Mailing List ==== Mailing list moderator: Brenda K. Wolfgram Moore email: [email protected]

Did you try this address? Maybe they would have the address of someone connected to Iron COunty. Looks like no one ever adopted that county. If you want to Adopt Iron Co., e-mail Tina Vickery, the Wisconsin State Coordinator. [email protected] Maybe writing to this address would get some answers to questions.
