Hi Mary -- I hope I am not too late for an obituary lookup, and do sincerely thank you for your help. I have a greatgrandfather who is giving me a lot of frustration. He was: Peter Johnson Born 16 Apr 1839 in Denmark Married in Milwaukee 14 Oct 1868 (Martha Hansen) Resident of Milwaukee Died on or about 5 Dec 1871 (lost "at sea" in the Great Lakes - probably Lake Michigan) Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
