Bill, Thanks so much for the information. Wow, I discovered quite a few things there I wouldn't mind having.

Hello Ken I will probably go to the D/JCGS this summer if you want to wait and I can get the clippings you want. I can check at the Hartford History Room next time I go to Hartford Library, they have some information on Dodge County. Also when I go to the Dodge County Courthouse I can look for a death certificate for Merlin. Do you have any other names and dates of people your looking for birth, marriage and death certificates for. I can check the courthouse for them.
