FYI - Forwarded from another list - R/S MAK ++++++++++++++++++ Hello All, Last month the Wisconsin Historical Society introduced our new Pre-1907 Wisconsin Vital Records Index, which can be found at http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/vitalrecords. We began the index with nearly 1 million birth records and are excited to announce the addition of nearly 400,000 Wisconsin death records. The new death index, like its companion, began as a 1970s microfiche publication. The Schoenleber Foundation of Milwaukee generously provided funds to convert them to electronic form, so now genealogists have free public access to a comprehensive pre-1907 index to Wisconsin births and deaths. Marriages, for all Wisconsin counties, are up next. You can discover ancestors by individual name, by browsing by county and year, or by exact date. Births and deaths can both be searched at the same time and then viewed separately, if desired. State law prohibits publication on the Web of original birth or death certificates, so when you discover someone about whom you want more details, you can order a paper copy of the complete certificate from the Society online. Most are delivered within two weeks, and Society members receive a 10-percent discount on each order. Or, you can use the index as a research tool that points you to the birth and death records that you need. Vital records are not the only genealogical source available on the Society Web site. To learn more about what we have online check out our genealogy page at www.wisconsinhistory.org/genealogy. Hope you enjoy the new additions.

Having worked on the EC committee - I would like to encourage any of our CCs who want to get more involved in the USGenWeb project to volunteer - While it took a commitment of time - it was a very rewarding experience. It gives you a chance to see the workings behind the USGenWeb - meet some really great people from other regions, yet, stay out of the political arenea. If you have any questions about what the job covers - send an email P4 to maktranscriber@yahoo.com - I will be happy to answer your questions or concerns.

I am passing this along with Michael's permission. Great things are happening in Madiison! Please see the message below. Paula Waupaca County Coordinator WIGenWeb Project http://www.rootsweb.com/~wiwaupac/index.htm The following information has been received from Michael Edmonds, Deputy Director, Library-Archives Division, Wisconsin Historical Society, Madison, Wisconsin regarding upcoming projects at the State Historical Society Archives. Please note that the last four (4) items are tentative and many months from completion, but just knowing that there is a plan to add more resources online is so exciting! Reminder: Check http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/ often for news about the Historical Society; that page changes several times a week. To see the Society's online research resources together in a single place, go over to http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/research.asp "1. Right now, we're putting the final touches on a massive vital records index that will please genealogists (http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/vitalrecords). Only births are there at the moment, but deaths will go up today or tomorrow and marriages in a few weeks. 2. By summer we hope to finish mounting all of our photos of small Wisconsin towns at http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/whi; there are 7,000 of them, and about two-thirds have been added in the last 18 months. 3. We're just beginning to digitize every page of Wisconsin Historical Collections and the Wisconsin Magazine of History. Late last fall we received a grant from the Schoenleber Foundation of Milwaukee, that will fund the work. We've scanned about 4,000 pages so far, and have 29,000 more to go. Then we have to figure out how to mount them in a way that's useful to researchers. My current estimate is that we will have every page available, searchable by subject matter or by keyword. 4. We may have early Wisconsin newspapers (1833-1860) available next month if our partners comes through as expected. Beyond that, we will probably undertake the following projects during 2007: 5-6. More than a million pages of Wisconsin newspapers and about 150 county histories will be converted to digital form later this year, but figuring out how to present them on the Web and doing that work will probably take us at least another 12 months. 7. We're also applying for a grant to make the core maps of Wisconsin available. 8. Another grant would mount 160 hours of interviews with survivors of the Nazi Holocaust who settled in Wisconsin. These last 4 projects will surely not go public until well into 2007, assuming we can raise the money to build them at all."
