What is it and how do you find entries in it! Thanks! Pattie Schultz Schwemm/Rethmeier ------------ They were for tax and planning purposes. County level. Various info is included, but usually parents, children and ages, and often legal description to their residence. Check first for a County Superintendent's office at the courthouse. Many counties are doing away with Supt's, and the records are going various places. I've seen them with the Register of Deeds in one county, and with the Sheriff in another. Kathy
