Hi, My great aunt worked there. Her name was Louise Bothe before she married Rachel Nommensen Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss it you will land among the stars. ~Les Brown

My grandmother worked there-Lillian Freitag, as did her sister, Irene. Anyone by that name? -----Original Message----- From: Mary Frank [mailto:MRFRANK@des.uwm.edu] Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2002 5:17 PM To: WIMILWAU-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [WiMilwau] Early Milwaukee Telephone Co. Anybody on this list have ancestors who worked at the Milwaukee Telephone Co. back in the 20's?

I would love to see those pictures too. My aunt born in 1901 MIGHT have worked at the phone co. but I know my cousin did in the 1940's. That's when we had 4 party lines and the operator said "Number Please". Our phone # was Hilltop 2026. Later, it became Hilltop 2-2026. Funny how those memories stick. Please share your pictures. Jean Redzinski (Runge)

I sure would be interested in seeing those photo's..I have 4 family members who worked as telephone operators in Milwaukee during this time (not sure if its the Milwaukee Telephone Co. though or for another business). They were Elizabeth Roden, Katherine Rice, Agnes Booth and Elizabeth Rice. Sally > > Anybody on this list have ancestors who worked at the Milwaukee > Telephone Co. back in the 20's?

The pictures are great, thanks for sharing the web site. I believe my gg grandfather is in one of them. Thanks, Barbara

Does anyone know if Holy Spirit is still an active parish and if not when it closed? Thank you, Virginia

Looking for info on the Milwaukee County Home for Dependent Children, I just found out that the info is kept at the Milwaukee Historical Society, does this include records on the children who lived there ? and how would I go about obtaining that info. Thanks, Rich Fellie

Terry, I have access to the 1921 Milwaukee City Directory--would be happy to do look-ups in this book in exchange for some look-ups in England...

Hi Don, I don't have access to a Milwaukee death index. However, I looked on the WI death index and there aren't any people with the last name Milham listed at all. They figure that the index before 1907 only reported about 50% of those who died.

William Milham is listed in the 1870 Wi. census, living with his mother in Watertown Wi., age 8. She remarried in 1871 and relocated to Milwaukee. I can find no further reference to him and would appreciate a Wi. death index lookup for young Wm Milham. Thank you Don

Looking for any of our family with the name of STEINKE, DOBERSTEIN, ADLER, SAEGER ,STEGMANN, LOSHE, IN THE MILWAUKEE AREA. THANKS LYNDA

Has anyone access to the index for the 1910 census for Milwaukee.... three lookups needed. Can offer help with anything in England in return Terry Haslam-Jones

To the List: I have also had this virus stopped by my anti-virus program several times. Here is a link if you want to check to see if you have it and how to clean it up. Just be sure to print out and follow the directions for the type of system that you have. I have two different systems networked and had to do each one differently. Thankfully the anti-virus program quarantined the virus. Klez Cleaner: http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.klez.removal.tool.html A new, nasty little virus/worm, W32.Klez.gen@mm plus several variants, is making the rounds and has been upped to a category 4......which means it's wide spread. Please check your anti-virus programs regularly to see if there are updates. There are new viruses/worms coming out almost every day. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harry G.
