Dear Fellow CCs, I've been communicating this past week with Mike Romaine, who has offered to do lookups in the book "History of Northern Wisconsin" which was published in 1881 (see book details below). He will be able to start these lookups as of 17 November. If anyone is interested in his offer, he would be most happy to hear from you. His email address is mailto:[email protected] .
