Raudwer Jr. is still living in Fresno, CA. He's the only Raudwer in California. The T.B.Scott Free Library in Merrill, Wisconsin has a genealogy room with a lisitng of anyone who had an obituary in the various newspapers over time. The listings tell you which mircorfiche to check and where in it. I've found that to be the most beneficial for my genealogy work. Obituaries usually have a lot of usual information.

It's maybe six miles west and a little south of the Village of Irma. There was a beautiful view across the highway and a field to the Wisconsin River and the west side beyond the river.

All I know is that Thomas Pool Drew was born in England (nothing more specific than that) in 1845 (nothing more specific than that), married Phebe L. Wyant and died in 1928 (no specific date). He's buried in a cemetery near Gleason, Wisconsin. There is, by the way, a Guy Drew who has a very successful vineyard just west of Cortez, CO.

They were in the Mid West for a period of years, and perhaps more came over and stayed there, as well. Thomas Drew b. 1806 in Helston, Cornwall, England brought my ggGradfather, his son with him to Grass Valley, California eventually about 1851. His name was William Drew. They stayed in california, and my gggGradfather, Thomas Drew is buried in Nevada City/Grass Valley, CA. Let me know who your Drew relatives were if you know. Thanks.
