Forwarded - with permission - please pass on - Last spring you asked us to notify you when Turning Points in Wisconsin History, our newest digital collection, would be ready. This is that notice: you'll be able to start using it at http://www.wisconsinhistory.org in about two weeks. The week of December 1st you'll be able to examine precious documents about Wisconsin's past in the convenience of your home, office, or classroom, any time you like. This initial installment of Turning Points will contain: - hundreds of rare books, manuscripts, photographs, museum objects, newspaper articles, speeches, maps, posters, and other original historical artifacts; - an explanation of each of those sources telling where it came from, and why it's important; - an online Dictionary of Wisconsin History that identifies and describes nearly 1,000 key people, places, and events; - 100 reference maps showing a wide variety of data about our past; - 24 essays giving the basic facts about pivotal developments in Wisconsin history. The topics that these resources document were chosen in a poll last spring, during which more than 100,000 votes were cast. Everything at Turning Points is free, and can be printed, copied and downloaded for educational use any time you like. Some highlights of this first segment: - chapters of an original Jesuit Relation from 1663 with reports from Fr. Rene Menard, the first missionary to reach Wisconsin; - a handwritten letter by Louis Joliet, describing his 1673 Mississippi voyage with Jacques Marquette and his narrow escape from death; - an original French map from 1755 showing trading posts and missions among Wisconsin Indian nations; - the Wisconsin travels of Jonathan Carver, first Englishman to write about our state; - a handwritten letter by a young wife caught up in the Black Hawk War in 1832: - 28 letters from Milwaukee between 1836 and 1846, when it grew from a minor French outpost to a bustling American metropolis; - speeches and documents by 19th-century Menominee and Ojibwe leaders, and the texts of all Wisconsin treaties; - memoirs of fur trader Pierre Paquette, Gov. Nelson Dewey, dairyman William D. Hoard, inventor Stephen M. Babcock, suffragist Olympia Brown, and many other Wisconsin men and women. You can view the manuscripts as original handwritten documents or in transcripts, and you can read early French books from their original pages, as typed texts, or translated into English. You can zoom in or out on maps and illustrations to capture details or grasp the big picture. You can click for help or email us from any page (we're usually able to answer the same day). Right now Turning Points is strongest on early Wisconsin history. After this initial release, we'll add more primary sources, explanations, dictionary terms, and essays every day until we've brought the collection up through the late 20th century. If there's a Wisconsin history topic you need to teach or write about that isn't complete yet on the Turning Points site, drop us a note (the address is below) and we'll do our best to quickly mount the sources you need. So make a note to visit wisconsinhistory.org the week of December first for a healthy, post-Thanksgiving taste of Wisconsin history. And feel free to tell your friends and colleagues to do the same. Sincerely, Michael Edmonds and Erika Janik Turning Points project Library-Archives Division Wisconsin Historical Society turningpoints@whs.wisc.edu __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Nicke, dealer in agricultural implements at Tomah, was born in Germany October 5, 1875, and came to America with his father, Gotlieb Nicke, and his family of five children in 1892. They first located in Chicago, Ill., where for two and one-half years the father worked as a day laborer. In the fall of 1895 they removed to Monroe county, Wisconsin, and purchased forty acres of land and here made their home for ten years. For two and one-half years Robert and his father operated a sawmill with marked success near Tomah. In 1904 Robert G. moved into the city of Tomah and engaged in the grocery business, which he conducted for three years. Disposing of his grocery, he purchased the implement business from Dan Crowley, and has since successfully continued in that line. He carries a large stock of all kinds of farm machinery, including gasoline engines, binders, twine, pumps, windmills, spring and farm wagons and carriages from the leading manufactureres of the count! ry. He is one of Tomah's prosperous, safe and reliable business men and prominent alike in business and social circles. In politics he is independent in thought and action, supporting the man for office whom he thinks best qualified for the position regardless of party affiliations. On August 12, 1908, at Tomah, Mr. Nicke was united in marriage to Miss Eda Miller. They have two children, Raymond and John Nicke. Source: History of Monroe County Wisconsin.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Tuttle, Love, Hatch Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4EC.2ACE/869.4 Message Board Post: Since I posted this query at I have learned quite a bit more about Gilbert Tuttle, who married Clarissa Love, the daughter of our brickwall Clinton Love. Some of the researchers have listed three sons for Gilbert and Clarissa, but online biographies do not agree with that. I have however, found a male who died young who I believe was their son. Here is the information that I have for the child of Clarissa & Gilbert. Clinton Ridge Cemetery, Vernon Co,Wi Burial #14 1875 April 4 Oscar Tuttle son of Gilbert. Age-years-no mother's name listed. Vernon County, Clinton Township, Post office Veroqua,Wi Census 1870 July. Oscar Tuttle 12 years old living with Cortes P. Taylor; dwelling 147 family147. Makes him 17 yrs old when he died,and born ca.1858 so it is possible he is the child of Carissa Love Tuttle (married 1855) He would not be the child of Gilbert and Lucy Hatch Quackenbush (Gilbert's #2 wife) as they weren't married until 1864, shortly after Clarissa's death. Gilbert owned plot # 33 in Clinton Ridge Cemetery, next to plot 40 owned by Albert Love, Clarissa's brother and near the plot Clinton, her father is burried in. I would like to know if there are any other children attributed to this couple, and I do not think that George, Fred, and Alfred were their sons, as many others do. Notice in this pension application below that he answered that he did not have any living children as of 1898, and the bios of these men show they were still living at that time. I know there were several Gilbert Tuttles. The one who married Clarissa later moved to Dakota territory from the information in his pension application. Also, on a census record in 1880, he was listed as divorced, so apparently he and Lucy Hatch Quackenbush did not stay together. (The Quackenbush family is also an affiliated family of the Love family.)
