Dear Listers, Just wanted to pass along some helpful hints for sending me requests for searches. I have found that if you provide me with some or all of the following then the search is quite more successful. NAME (including middle initial if possible) MAIDEN NAME & MARRIED NAME (including spouses name if known) DATE OF DEATH (at least approximate) DATE OF BIRTH (if known) TOWN OF LOCATION (last known) If you do not have any these, please provide what you do have. Any little bit helps and will give you better results. I have received many requests over the past few days and have had quite a lot of success. Thanks to all of you and Happy New Year!

Looking for obits for my gr gr grandparents: Johann (John) Buchholz b. 1822/23 Prussia d. 2 May 1891, Milwaukee Paulina (Pauline) Buchholz, nee Gehrt b. 1829/30 Prussia d. 28 Feb 1900, Milwaukee Thank you for your time and assistance.

My request is somewhat unusal, I am looking for a death record for an uncle that I recently discovered. I know that he died Very young. He was born Ettie ( I think perhaps it was intended to be Edward/Eddie), November 21, 1897 to John and Helen(Ladwig) Wilhelm in Milwaukee. He had an older sister born in October 1896, with only a thirteen month difference I suspect there is a possibility he may have been premature.His parents were later buried at Union Cemetery but have been unable to contact anyone there. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
