Does anyone have access to the book " History of Northern Wisconsin", published in 1881? Thanks, Jackie

I am in the process of adding all the Juneau Co. names from the WI Birth Index, pre-1907 which is on Ancestry.com. I have the A's and B's complete and online at http://www.rootsweb.com/~wijuneau/birthindex.html as I complete each one I will let you know. And the next census that will be online will be 1900 Necedah. Jackie

Well I just finished the 1900 Fountain census and as I mentioned before if you can fill in any of the missing info or correct some spellings please let me know. http://www.rootsweb.com/~wijuneau/CensusIndex.html Jackie

The 1900 Lisbon census is now complete and online http://www.rootsweb.com/~wijuneau/index.htm Jackie P.S. Some names are difficult to read so if anyone has the correct spellings please let me know. Thanks.

For those not subscribed to Ancestry Daily News, thought you might be interested in this. Jackie ___________________________________________________________________ WISCONSIN BIRTH RECORDS, 1820-1907 This database indexes more than 985,000 births recorded in the state of Wisconsin before 1907. Wisconsin is one of few states to have a widespread index of records prior to establishment of a state vital records office. However, it is important to note that there will be some records at the county level that are not included in this statewide index. Taken from the index created by the Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services, Vital Records Division, this database will prove useful to those who are researching ancestors from early Wisconsin.

Well I finally got the 1900 Summit census complete and online. And thanks to Joan Benner the 1895 Lyndon census is now complete. Time to start on another 1900 census. Jackie

Hi list, I spent some time in Juneau Co. this week. Not enough time to do everything. Before we left we met a man that is my dad's cousin. He is 90 years old. His name is Joseph Voborsky. He asked me about his fathers naturalization but we didn't get to look for it. Would anyone have a chance to get to the court house tomorrow and check it for me so I can tell him about it on Sunday at the Old Settlers Reunion in New Miner. His fathers name was James R. VOBORSKY and was born about 1878 in Austria. The 1920 census says he was naturalized in 1911. Thanks for any help, Peggy :)

Hello Everyone, I am looking for my gggrandparents. I found them in the 1870 census in The Town of Lisbon, WI. James( 36) Mariah (34) Raymond both born in Eng. Daughter Matilda born in ILL. in 1866, then Minnie born 1869 in WI.and Louisa born 1873 in WI. The Raymond's are living with a young couple name Lewis and Jemima Rutter. Lewis (24) born in WI. Jemima (26) born in Eng. I don't know the relationship between the Raymond's and the Rutters but I found them on the 1880 census in Ellis County, Texas living next door to each other. The Rutters now have Larry (10) B. WI. and Charles (8) born WI. I sent for the children's birth certificate's in WI. but they were to early. Can anyone tell me what to do next? I would appreciate any help. Thank You, Martha Cauthen

Juneau Rooters, I have five requests for tomorrow, so ask you to NOT send any more look-up requests for now. The next time I go to Mauston I'll let the list know about it and will make this offer again, so you will have other chances for free help. Thanks for the response and I hope I can help some of you out. Joan M. Benner, Golden Rule Genealogy Member, Association of Professional Genealogists and Rootsweb Sponsor Friendly Professional Research, Guided by the Golden Rule Specializing in Central Wisconsin Records P.O. Box 1559, Wisconsin Rapids WI 54495-1559 or for more information, http://www.rootsweb.com/~wiwood/resource/r-joanb.htm Do the right thing. It will gratify some people and astonish the rest.

Hello Juneau List Members, Tomorrow I will be going to Mauston to do some research, and I'm willing to do a vital record look-up for the first five people who e-mail me, for free. If you need a birth, marriage or death certificate verified or copied, contact me with ONE name/event and approximate date, and I'll see what I can do. If I find the certificate I will send the results to you in an e-mail, if not, I will notify you it could not be found. Joan M.

Hi List, I have just read and signed the online petition: "National Cemetery Protection Act" hosted on the web by PetitionOnline.com, the free online petition service, at: http://www.petitiononline.com/sg0001/petition.html I personally agree with what this petition says, and I think you might agree, too. If you can spare a moment, please take a look, and consider signing yourself. Peggy :)

The Mauston courthouse has them, I haven't had a chance to look at them but when I called they said to just come on in and look.

Hi List, Does anyone know, where, in Juneau County, naturalization records are kept? I have checked with the State Historical Library Web site and it says they are in Juneau Co. I'm on my way there next week and have a few to look for. If my family lived in Armenia TWP, could they have possibly done there process in Wood County? Would this have been common practice? Thanks for any help, Peggy :)

M. A. Kuehl and I are pleased to announce there is now another collection of library resources of interest to central WI genealogists. As some of you know, I have been busy the past six months as Nekoosa Library's genealogy collection development coordinator, and the project is nearly complete, with funding generously provided by Charles and JoAnn (Alexander) Lester. Genealogists with roots in Adams, Wood, Monroe, Juneau, Jackson, Waushara, Clark, Portage, parts of Trempealeau and Eau Claire counties will want to check http://www.rootsweb.com/~wiwood/Nekoosa/ Check back again later and we hope to have a list online of available resources, including cemetery, vital record and newspaper indexes and some genealogy CD's. Thanks also to M. A. Kuehl, the county site and mailing list coordinator for Wood County, who donated space for the page on Wood Co rootsweb for the Library's genealogy collection. Joan M.
