The changes that they have made to rootsweb, since ancestry.com has taken over have been very confusing. Here is the link to the Eau Claire message board: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=board&r=rw&p=localities.northam.usa.states.wisconsin.counties.eauclaire As I get the time, I will post the bios that I am interested in. If there are any other names of interest to anyone, then please let me know and I will also post these as I get the time. I've copied the contents of my two previous postings of names below, since for some reason they are not going out to the list when posted: This book contains a class photo and a printed copy of each of their commencement speeches.
