    1. Deaths Added to Wisconsin Vital Records Index
    2. Melissa McLimans
    3. Last month the Wisconsin Historical Society introduced our new Pre-1907 Wisconsin Vital Records Index, which can be found at 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. Melissa McLimans

I have collected a great deal of information on the Usadel side of the family. Edwin's father's name was actually Franz. Stories have it that Edwin's Great Grandfather, Friederick Baumann"divorsed his wife Wilhelmine (Werner). According to the 1870 census, Frederick(age 30) and Wilhelmine(age 22) had Franz (age 9/10). In the 1881 Census, he now was married to Minna (have not been able to find a marrage license) and they had Franz, Emma, Robert and Huldina. Also had grandmother Werner living with them. Would love to find out more about this story.

    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Bergeson, Lester, Brown, Rohloff, Hanson, Moseley Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/2EC.2ACE/3193 Message Board Post: Phishing again for information on a 1924 adoption in Green Bay. I am looking for any information on my grandmother's birth mother, Helen C. Brown, possibly Helen Moseley out of Marshfield, Wisconsin. I have great reason to believe the birth mother's name was Helen Moseley, born in Wisconsin in about 1902. Information I have received a copy of a letter dated 8-11-1949 from my grandmother attempting to locate her mother. The letter was from the State of Wisconsin, State Department of Public Welfare. Addressed to Miss Renetta Myer, District Supervisor, Division of Child Welfare, Box 196, Green Bay, Wisconsin. The adoption record was located, record of the Wisconsin Home Finding Society which placed the child. The Wisconsin Home Finding Society eventually was taken over by the Orphan and Rescue Home, the records were passed on to the State Dept. of Public Welfare. The information about the child and mother: child, Helen C. Brown, date of birth, 2-21-1924, birthplace, Green Bay, Wisconsin, where received, Clara Barton Hospital, Child was described as very small, no birthweight given, Mother: Helen C. Brown, born at Marshfield, American by nationality, Baptist by church affiliation, health was good, mental capacity, very bright, occupation, nurse, habits were good, school record unknown, residence was Marshfield, Wisconsin. The letter further reveals that the mother left Green bay for Milwaukee for employment and was working at the Milwaukee Sanitarium. A woman had contacted the Children's Home on Webster Street about a friend who needed their help, she knew a young lady that was pregnant. The woman's name was Mrs. S.D. Moseley. Upon further research into the Moseley family, I found them in the census and the head of household was Seldon Devotion Moseley, the wife was Caroline, oldest daughter was Helen. odd coincidence on the names? Just made a research trip to Milwaukee, Wisconsin looking for records, found Helen Mosely, aged 22, parents were Seldon and Caroline Lester Moseley, in 1924 had obtained a marriage license in Green Bay, Wisconsin on December 4, 1924, and married a Joseph Hansen, son of John O. and Martha Bergeson, on December 10th, 1924 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Oddly enough, this date was also the date of the finalization of the adoption of my grandmother, Helen C. Brown/Joyous Suzanne Rohloff. I got the marriage license in Milwaukee and decided to make the trip up to Marshfield, Wisconsin to see if I could find anything further. I found Helen's sister, Inez in the high school yearbook, graduating class of 1927. No sign of Helen, who was five years older than her according to the 1920 census. There was another sister I could not find, her name was Emma, she was not in the yearbooks either. With the occupation of nurse, I decided to check Nursing schools, St, Joseph's 1923 yearbook proved a dead-end also. I going through the Marshfield Daily News, I found where Helen had been confined to a hospital for a week in Wausau on July 14, 1923 and waas brought back home according to the "Local News" section. On July 18th there was another article stating that the grandmother was visiting from Janesville. July 19th's paper still had her confined at home. On July 26th, Helen was taken to the Hospital, though the daily updates for St. Joseph's did not have her listed as a patient in the days following. Hmm. Wonder if she may have found out she was pregnant? (Granny was born in February). As of August 26th's paper, Helen had been confined to her home for two months and was able to be around a "short while". September 1's paper has a daughter named Fenno Mosely and Ida Lester of Janesville visiting the Moseley home, but no mention of Helen. Curious as to why, The ! adoption agency has the letter from Mrs. S.D. Moseley dated as Feb. 12th, 1924, Helen sort of disappeared from Marshfield. I am looking for any information on the Moseley family, the Hansens, the adoption agency records, nursing school records if she went to a nursing school. Anything, in general, I guess, I am trying to connect the dots, I think this is our girl. Diona Dickerson
