Hi Rob, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.? You have just saved me more than $100.00.? The book did not have the people whom? I was most looking for.?? There certainly was some interesting information on that site. Thanks, Velma -----Original Message----- From: Rob and Chris Bennett <c.p.bennett@sbcglobal.net> To: widane@rootsweb.com Sent: Fri, 6 Jul 2007 10:43 pm Subject: Re: [WIDANE] New to list and need help Velma -- Reprints of the 1880 History of Dane County are available but expensive, especially if you want it for only a few quick lookups. You might consider checking out a copy from your local library instead. I borrowed a copy through an interlibrary loan a few years ago. Your local library can get you a copy for a nominal fee (my library charged me $3). Also, there is an index to the book's biographies online at USGenWeb's project archives for Dane County at http:// www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/wi/dane/dane.htm .
