http://www.uwm.edu/Library/arch/findaids/micro70.htm SCOPE AND CONTENT: The Genealogical Society of Utah (GSU) and the Wisconsin Historical Society have cooperated in a project to borrow and film Wisconsin church and cemetery records of interest to genealogists. The church records typically contain registers of baptisms, confirmations, marriages, funerals, church membership, and occasionally church constitutions, histories, and minutes. Cemetery records list burials and lot owners. A wide range of Christian denominations are included. The records are indexed by church or cemetery name, location, and denomination. The Golda Meir Library staff will research and copy thing for you, for a charge, of course. Here's the order form: http://www.uwm.edu/Library/arch/serchrch.htm Here's information for Susan about the films in MILWAUKEE MICRO COLLECTION 70 that pertain to Pilgrim's Rest.

Bill, there is no index for the obituaries, so I wouldn't be able to find anything without a date. I did look on Ancestry.com and find a German Martin Domagalski on the Chicago Voter Registration list for 1890. I also found a Polish Domagalski, 29 years old, living in Milwaukee and listed on the 1920 census, but he was living alone. >>> bwodarcz@chicagonet.net 04/13/02 01:45PM >>> Hi, First of all I must say that you are probably thinking "What was I thinking of when I made that offer?"

Hi, Speaking of Pilgrim's Rest, does anyone know if there are any plans by the cemetery or any cemetery associations to make the names of persons buried there available to the public--as the Catholic Cemeteries in Milwaukee did? I, too, have relatives buried there--and really wish they had a search engine like the Arch Diocese of Milwaukee does.

Susan (and other's interested) I doubt there are any plans for any cemeteries to put their information online. That is typically quite an undertaking. It is rare that the Milwaukee Archdiocese has an online database. It is my experience from my work with other counties/states, that many churches tend to keep their information to themselves. I am pretty happy to see that Milwaukee has this database available. I was poking around this morning in the LDS Library Search. There is 6 microfilm Reels available through the Family History Center for Pilgrim's Rest Cemetery in Milwaukee. The records are 1880-1979. Do you have a family history center available to you?

I believe that Pilgrim's Rest was owned by St. Stephens Lutheran Church. There may be information in their records.through the FHC on LDS #2057194. Have you tried probate records?

Several people have written to ask about UWM's records and location, etc. I've put together some information that might help you plan a trip to the library at UWM. The main thing to note is that the number of microfilm readers is limited (see below), but there are many, many other genealogy-related resources that you can use in addition to the microfilm records. Continue reading beyond the resources part of this email for driving/bus directions. UWM is the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. We are the second largest state-funded school (after the famous University of Wisconsin in Madison). We have approximately 22,000 students with an unusual demographic. We are the state institution that has the highest percentage of transfer students, many of our students are older students, and the vast majority of them commute to UWM's compact campus, rather than living in our four dorm towers. UWM's Golda Meir Library is a regional repository for certain types of genealogical records. (See Milwaukee Area Research Center information below). Other web pages from the UWM Golda Meir Library include: http://www.uwm.edu/Library/arch/division/index.html (Division of Archives and Special Collections) http://www.uwm.edu/Library/arch/ (Archives) http://www.uwm.edu/Dept/Library/arch/genie.htm (Genealogy) MILWAUKEE AREA RESEARCH CENTER: The Milwaukee Area Research Center (ARC) is a branch of the Wisconsin Historical Society's ARC network, which consists of thirteen centers throughout the state. The Milwaukee ARC contains over 800 collections of public records and private papers from Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Sheboygan, Washington, and Waukesha counties. Major ARC collections include birth, death, marriage, naturalization, probate, and property records for all or some of the five counties; records of Milwaukee mayor Henry Maier's administration; records of Milwaukee Downer College; and collections from many individuals and organizations involved in the civil rights movement in Milwaukee, including Lloyd Barbee, James Groppi, the Milwaukee Urban League, and the local chapter of the NAACP. HOURS: Go to this website to check hours for the dates you're interested in visiting the UWM G.M. Library: http://www.uwm.edu/Library/hours/index.html The section with the microfilm is called: Current Periodicals/Microforms Service Counter The Regular Hours are posted below, but the NGS Conference will be at a time when UWM is holding "finals" for the spring semester, so you need to check for special hours on the website listed above. During times when people (especially student people!) are waiting to use the microfilm readers, one is limited to 15 minutes on the machines. Regular Hours: Monday through Thursday 8:00 a.m. - 10:00 p.m. Friday 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Saturday 9:00 a.m. -5:00 p.m. Sunday 1:00 p.m. -9:00 p.m. The Sanborn Fire Maps (and many other old maps) are located in another area of the library known as the American Geographical Society Collection. They are open only during the following times: Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. The Wright's Directories are in the general collection, Call No. F589.M6. General library information, including a link to the online catalog, is at http://www.uwm.edu/Library/GenInfo/index.html. HOW TO FIND UWM: UWM is located on the upper east side of Milwaukee and you can take Bus #30 from downtown (Midwest Express Center) up to UWM. There are two #30 buses (Downer and Maryland)--either one will get you up to UWM. BE SURE YOU TAKE THE #30 GOING EAST, NOT THE ONE GOING WEST. The bus was $1.50 the last time I rode (a few months ago). Be sure to ask for a transfer when you take buses in Milwaukee, as you can travel back on the same route using your transfer if it hasn't expired. If you prefer to drive you can use these instructions from AAA: >From Midwest Express Center at 400 W Wisconsin Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin To UWM Golda Meir Library at 2311 E Hartford Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin Total Distance: 3.9 miles (6.3km) Total Est.

I am attending the National Genealogical Society's national conference next month. I plan to be in Milwaukee for 13 days to also research a family. Please reply and explain what UWM means. Thanks Le Juan Shrimplin Researching Frederick Kaul and Alice Bickford.

My great grandmother Emilie (Ehlert) Freiberg died in Milwaukee on Feb 19, 1893 - she is buried in Pilgrim's Rest cemetery i would like her obituary - it seems if it appeared at all it would be in The Milwaukee Herold - which was not available for July 1892 - April 1893 - the other two Milwaukee papers - The Journal and The Sentinel were also searched but nothing appeared for her the search was done at the Wisconsin Historical Society Library the middle of February of this year does anyone know where else this information might be if not at the Historical Library? ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
