Given the big discussion re Deaconess Hospital, a wonderful lady named Nancy on this list provided this website, (along with some really special information regarding my family), which may answer some questions about the Deaconess issue, and maybe raise some more?? I'm not clear now if this was actually an orphanage, as was listed in the phone directory?? In any case, there are some great links on the site regarding genealogy records at Golda Meir Library, which may not be new to Wisconsinites, but was interesting stuff!! The Deaconess Orphanage/Hospital on the "net" http://www.uwm.edu/Library/arch/hospital/index.htm. Maybe this will help someone. . . Pam ______________________________________________________
