Thanks for any help. Have you checked the local newspapers of the time for marriages and obits that might have mentioned him and his church affiliation? Kathy

I used the website Kathy is referring to when I locate the information that I sent below. Those are the records I will look at. The website is the indexes only. You can order a copy of the articles but you will pay for them. I can copy them for about 30 cents and do not expect to get reimbursed for that small of an amount.

You should be able to locate this information from the Dane County Courthouse. Write to the Register of Deeds there. The address is: City County Building Dane County Room 110 210 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. PO Box 1438 Madison WI 53701-1438 The website is: http://www.co.dane.wi.us/regdeeds/rdhome.htm You can e-mail the Register of Deeds if you have questions.
