The National Genealogical Society invites you to participate in our upcoming national conference: 2002 National Genealogical Society Conference in the States 15-18 May 2002 Milwaukee, Wisconsin http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/2002cover.htm Please share this invitation with all of your friends in genealogy. ABOUT NGS & THE 2002 CONFERENCE IN THE STATES ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The National Genealogical Society (NGS), established in 1903, annually assists over 17,000 individuals and organizational members in tracing family histories. The NGS provides leadership and education through its programs, online and home-study courses, publications, annual and regional conferences. The 2002 NGS Conference in the States will be held on 15-18 May at the Midwest Express Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It is expected to attract some 2,500 genealogists from across the nation and several foreign countries. A complete copy of the program and registration information can be found on the NGS web site: http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/2002cover.htm LOCAL HOST - WSGS ---------------------------------- The local host of the 2002 Conference is the Wisconsin State Genealogical Society, the oldest and largest statewide genealogical organization in Wisconsin. Founded in 1939, WSGS now has more than 1,400 members both in and out of Wisconsin. WSGS is a non-profit Wisconsin corporation whose basic purpose is to encourage, facilitate and improve the quality of genealogical study in Wisconsin and about Wisconsin families. For more information, see the Wisconsin State Genealogical Society web site: http://www.wsgs.org Please direct all inquiries, letters and proclamations to: Jack Brissee Wisconsin State Genealogical Society P.O. Box 5106 Madison, WI 53705-0106 OPENING SESSION -------------------------------- Marsha Hoffman Rising will speak on the subject, "Strong Links Make a Solid Chain: Linking Records to Identify Ancestors." Rising is a Certified Genealogist and a Certified Genealogical Lecturer as well as being a fellow of both the American Society of Genealogists and the Utah Genealogical Association. She is a former president of the Federation of Genealogical Societies and currently serves on the board of directors of the New England Historic Genealogical Society. Marsha is an experienced researcher, author and lecturer as well as being a founding member of the Genealogical Speakers' Guild. MASTER LECTURES -------------------------------- Presentations by the masters, not just for the masters. We've asked four of today's top genealogists/lecturers (Christine Rose, Helen Leary, Elizabeth Shown Mills, and John Philip Colletta) to each present a case study, on a topic of their own choosing, describing how they identified, researched, and presumably solved, a tough genealogical problem. LAYING A SOLID FOUNDATION ------------------------------------------------ Guidance by many of the nation's top teachers and lecturers on the fundamentals of genealogical research a series of seventeen presentations, running throughout the conference. An excellent foundation for the beginner, as well as a solid review and update for the more-experienced. SKILLBUILDING TRACK ------------------------------------ NGS and the Board for Certification of Genealogists are proud to offer the latest edition of the Skillbuilding track, a series of presentations designed for those researchers who want to improve their research and analytical skills. The presentations in this track, based on the theme of "standards," will help improve the research and reporting skills of any serious genealogist. AND MUCH, MUCH MORE ----------------------------------------- The four-day conference offers more than 200 sessions (lectures and luncheons, workshops and labs) on virtually every aspect of genealogy. Because Milwaukee and the Midwest have historically drawn immigrants from many countries, ethnic and immigrant research (on both sides of the ocean) will be a major feature, but it won't be the only one. From Revolutionary War pensions to the 1930 census, to research in Social Security records, from research in New York to research in California, from lighthouse families to Chicago cemeteries, from Salt Lake City to France on the Internet, there will be much to offer any genealogist. NGS BANQUET ------------------------- Enjoy fine dining at the Milwaukee Hilton. Then after dinner NGS President Curt Witcher will recognize individuals for their excellence in genealogy. The newest member of the National Genealogy Hall of Fame will be announced; the NGS Filby Prize winner, and others who have excelled in genealogical writing will receive their awards. Our banquet speaker is Patty Loew, a renaissance woman. Patty is an assistant professor at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, co-host of WeekEnd on Wisconsin Public Television, producer of award-winning documentaries, and recently author of "Indian Nations of Wisconsin: Histories of Endurance and Renewal." Her presentation "Seeing Red: a Family Odyssey into Native American Heritage" is an account of her discovery of the rich heritage of her Ojibwe ancestry. LIBRARIAN PRE-CONFERENCE ------------------------------------------------ Quickly becoming one of many exciting hallmarks of National Genealogical Society conferences, another Librarians Serving Genealogists Pre-Conference is being planned for Milwaukee. Coordinated by Pam Hall Cooper with the cooperation of the Milwaukee Public Library, this Tuesday, May 14th pre-conference will provide a forum for communication and networking between librarians interested in providing the best products and services to their genealogy patrons. The event will take place in the Loos Room of the Milwaukee Public Library and it is necessary to pre-register for the conference. Information on the program and registration is available on the NGS web site. Beginning with check-in and a welcome at 8:00 a.m., sessions will cover topics such as "New & Old Inter-library Loan Resources for Genealogy Librarians," "NGS Book Loan Collection," "Family History Centers for Public Libraries," the "Mid-Continent Public Library ILL Program, and "From Neophytes to Know-it-Alls: How to Help Genealogists." There will be a Minolta Microfilm Reader/Printer 7000 and Book Scanner 2000 demonstration, a tour of the Milwaukee Public Library (Including the Great Lakes Marine Collection), a Database Management Panel session, and Tour of Goethe House. A box lunch sponsored by ProQuest (HeritageQuest Online) will be provided. COMPUTER LABS ----------------------------- If you are a beginner, learn about the genealogy software now available, and if you are an experienced computer genealogist, here's a chance to learn about the latest versions of genealogy programs and tools for genealogy. Instructors will introduce beginners to programs and demonstrate their features. Intermediate and advanced users will have an opportunity to advance their skills and learn special features of their software. Participants share a Windows operating system computer. Those attending must be registered for the conference for at least the day of the lab and pay an extra $50.00 fee. Labs are limited, with two persons to each computer. NGS LEARNING CENTER --------------------------------------- The NGS Learning Center is guaranteed to be a worthwhile stop on your tour of the exhibit hall. We will be offering a daily schedule of educational activities in the form of question and answer sessions, informal discussions, and demonstrations. A small sampling of the topics scheduled include online resources; historic maps; GEDCOM; digital cameras and other imaging devices; genealogical software; the NGS Web site and the NGS Online Census Course. Visitors to the Learning Center will also have the opportunity to leisurely explore a variety of software applications under the guidance of expert volunteers and to participate in daily drawings for genealogical software and other items. EXHIBIT HALL ---------------------- The many exhibitors who fill the exhibit hall will bring many and varied products and services for genealogists. There will be software to assist not only in recording your genealogy, but also for using the Internet; CD-ROMs for researching an expanding series of publications, indexes and databases; preservation materials; books; maps and memorabilia. All in one place! What a great opportunity for hours of productive shopping. At many of the exhibit booths you will find genealogical societies and organizations offering memberships as well as products, services, and free advice. International researchers and societies are a welcome addition to the Exhibit Hall. They seek clients and new members while offering information on research in their countries. WELCOME TO MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN ----------------------------------------------------------------- --- Ethnicity - Place Names and People --- Look at any listing of Wisconsin place names and you will be struck by the obvious variety in ethnic origins of residents of the Badger State. Menominee, Denmark, Brussels, Berlin, Oneida, New Glarus, Wales, Paoli, Pulaski, Oslo, Stockholm, Nashville, Abbotsford, Athens, Albany, Schleswig, New Paris, New Lisbon, New Haven, New Holstein, Pan Yan, Fond du Lac, New Richmond, even New Chicago! And of course we have not even touched on all the places beginning with Wau-. The names signal American Indians, Germans, Italian, New Yorkers and New Englanders, Cornish, Irish, Polish, African-Americans, Kentuckians, Slovenes, Dutch, Belgian, Swiss, the whole panoply of peoples from around the world who came to populate America's Thirtieth State. And more recently Hispanics and South-east Asian groups have added to our exciting mix. --- Genuine American --- Yes, if you have an interest in ethnic backgrounds, you've come to the right place when you come to Wisconsin. And Milwaukee, the site of the 2002 NGS Conference in the States, An American Sampler, is in many ways a microcosm of the many ethnic groups you will find throughout the state. Not only does Milwaukee still have a number of ethnic neighborhoods centered on churches, cultural organizations, and restaurants, but also there are eight ethnically based genealogical societies active in the city or suburbs. When the Convention and Visitors Bureau identifies Milwaukee as 'Genuine American' they're not kidding. In Milwaukee we've got 'em all, it truly is 'An American Sampler!' --- Culture --- Back in the mid-19th Century when Milwaukee was largely populated by German immigrants with a strong interest in cultural activities, it was known as the 'American Athens.' That tradition still exists with the Florentine Opera, Milwaukee Symphony, the jewel-box Pabst Theater, the Milwaukee Ballet, Milwaukee Repertory Theater, and the celebrated African dance company, Ko-Thi. If you like museums there is the Milwaukee Public Museum with its fantastic Butterfly Wing, and you must see the newly expanded Milwaukee Art Museum which perches almost like a butterfly itself on the shore of Lake Michigan. Or perhaps you'd like to visit the 15th Century Joan of Arc Chapel, where daily mass is still celebrated, or Miller Park where the Brewers play. How about the Harley-Davidson Motorcycle plant, or perhaps you'd prefer a brewery tour! All summer-long there is a succession of ethnic festivals. And we dare you to try to eat your way through Milwaukee! There are not only a wide variety of ethnic foods, but scores of restaurants in all price ranges and cuisine are within easy walking distance of the Convention Center. --- Venue --- The venue for the 2002 Conference is the Midwest Express Center, located right downtown at 400 W. Wisconsin Avenue. Just opened in 1998, this is truly a state-of-the-art facility, but one with a comfortable feel and over a Million Dollars worth of public art on display. The Hilton and Hyatt Hotels are literally just across the street, while six more are within two blocks of the Midwest Express Center. --- Weather --- Milwaukee weather in mid-May is usually delightful. Temperatures in the 60's to low 70's, although nights can feel pretty cool as can some days down along the lakefront. Light jackets and sweaters are a good bet. You will also find that Milwaukee, and Milwaukeeans, are a pretty relaxed bunch so informal and casual attire is acceptable almost everywhere. --- Hotels and Travel --- Transportation? Milwaukee County Airport (Billy Mitchell Field) can almost make you enjoy flying again (particularly if you travel by Midwest Express!). If you don't mind changing your mode of travel, you can fly into Chicago and then take Amtrak to Milwaukee, the Amtrak Station is only 2 1/2 blocks from the Midwest Express Center. WE HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE! --------------------------------------------------- 2002 National Genealogical Society Conference in the States 15-18 May 2002 Milwaukee, Wisconsin http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/2002cover.htm ------------------- National Genealogical Society 4527 17th Street North Arlington, Virginia 22207-2399 Phone: (703) 525-0050 or (800) 473-0060 Fax: (703) 525-0052 E-mail: [email protected] http://www.ngsgenealogy.org Membership http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/member.htm Conferences http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/conf.htm Learning Center http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/edu.htm

Hi List I wish to purchase or wish know if any copy of the book "Sauk County Riflemen" written by Philip Cheek and Mair Pointon of Baraboo, Sauk County is available for purchase...... As this book represents and intimate part of my ancestral history in the USA, I am keenly looking for this book.....It is unavailable in Australia in any library that I have contacted...... Any contact would be appreciated, best regards David Cheek - Adelaide - Australia Virus Protection by Norton AntiVirus 2001 Researching in Somerset, Australia and now USA CHEEK, CHICK

I am looking for 2 families in the Baraboo area John Stead and his father-in-law Sebestian Karstetter. Sebestian appears in a book "Midwest Pioneers: Collections of the State Historical Socity of Wisconsin, Vol 25. I would like to know what it says about him in this book. Can someone direct me to the book or do a look up? Thanks so much Karen

The following cuts are being made at the State Historical Society of Wisconsin that will affect genealogists who research in Wisconsin. (Yet people of power at the SHSW, even though they believe in these cuts, would like to see their own salaries raised.) If you live in Wisconsin, please contact your local legislator and let him/her know this is not acceptable. For those of you who reside out of Wisconsin (and Wisconsin residents as well), the director of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin is George Vogt. His e-mail is [email protected] You can also leave a voice mail at 608-264-6440. His address is 816 State Street, Rm 205, Madison, WI 53706-1482. If you'd like to know other staff members to contact, go to their website at www.shsw.wisc.edu . At the bottom of the page, click on search then scroll down to staff directory. Be outraged!!! Let Mr Vogt and our government know that these cuts cannot happen and positions that have not been filled need to be filled. Four vacancies, including the position of microfilm technician have not been filled for a long time. The department is 5+ years behind in microfilming newspapers already. The future of microfilming of newspapers, records, etc. is in jeopardy. Six more library jobs are going to be eliminated. Two who handle periodicals are going and that puts collecting of important serials, journals, and such, on hold. An automation position will be eliminated and that kills digital archiving. Government records will not be kept by the library as librarians who handle this type of document will be gone. If you thought things were slow before, imagine how bad it will be when the remaining staff has to handle all the work without these expert librarians to lead them. Up to now, the State Historical Society of Wisconsin has been the second largest historical library in North America, but who knows what will happen to its collection or to collection development. What will happen to the service it provides to the people of Wisconsin, the United States, and the World?

I am researching the Elliott, Benson and Bates families of Ironton in the 1850 and beyond. Jacob W. Elliott came to the Ironton area during the 1850s with his wife, Olive Sophia Benson. They were members of the Ironton Methodist Circuit Church. They had three children Etta, Cora Alvien and Elias W. Jacob joined the WI 12th Infantry and was killed at Ezra Chapel near Atlanta. Olive never remarried. She stayed in the Ironton area and was a dressmaker until she died. Cora remained in this area all her life. She married Hill Eldridge Bates. They had two children, Benjamin E. and Etta Jane. They later divorce. Cora married <unknown> Wilson and had one child, Loretta E. Hill later married Rose Anna Brady and had four children, Madeline Ellen, Clifton, Cornelia and Robert Hill. They attended The Presbyterian Church of Reedsburg. Hill owned the Porter House (also known as the Bates House at one time). Hill's parents were Hill Bates and Susan Barr. They were also from the area and attended the United Brethren Church in Ironton. Etta Jane Bates married Amos William Bar(r)on. They lived in Excelsior. They had four children, Frank, Walter, Elliott and Arlene. Almeron Benson (father-in-law to Jacob W. Elliott) also lived in Ironton with his wife, Lucinda Stranton. They had 10 children, Janette, James, Elias, Amy C., Olive Sophia, Eliota, Mary J. Phebe A., Samantha and Sarah J. Almeron was also a member of the WI 12th Infantry. I have more information on most of these people. Plus I have some pictures. I would love to share information with anyone interested whether it be on these people or the area they lived in. Happy Hunting!!!! Susan

Rock Hill Cemetery, Baraboo Township and Pleasant Valley Cemetery (aka Ebenezer Cemetery), Excelsior Township, are now up on www.interment.net . Working on Tucker, Greenfield Township, and St. Michael's Catholic, Baraboo Township. Those should be up by this weekend. Kathy Waddell

Does anyone know where I might find adoption records for some one possibly adopted in Sauk Co., around the turn of the century? Clarissa Swinehart Monmouth, OR

Dear Kathy Thanks for your detailed efforts with this Cemetery.....It is only recently that I have located a branch from the UK to Baraboo and having the data from the cemetery confirms what data I have been able to dig up (no pun intended)....... For those interested I have been transcribing UK Somerset Parish Registers whilst chasing my ancestors, these transcriptions can be seen at: http://www.btinternet.com/~PBenyon/PR_Index.html Best regards David Cheek - Adelaide - Australia Virus Protection by Norton AntiVirus 2001 Researching in Somerset, Australia and now USA CHEEK, CHICK -----Original Message----- From: Kathy Waddell [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, 19 January 2002 7:13 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [SAUK] Walnut Hill Cemetery, Baraboo I have finally finished typing the 11,000+ people who are buried or have stones at Walnut Hill Cemetery, Baraboo. If you go to www.interment.net Click on United States, then Wisconsin, then Sauk County.....then begin your search for relatives that are buried at Walnut Hill. There are still many that are not listed that have no stone. That long process of going through the sexton's records is just beginning. There are already many that show "no stone" as I ran across them doing other research on this project. The records will be updated, corrected and added to often. I hope to keep Walnut Hill & St. Joseph's (once it is online) current. Walnut Hill is current to about January 5, 2002. Coming soon (after I get them typed) are St. Joseph Catholic and St. Michael's Catholic, both in Baraboo, Rock Hill Cemetery, Baraboo Twp, Tucker Cemetery, Greenfield Twp, Lake Delton Cemetery, Delton Twp, and Pleasant Valley (aka Ebenezer) Cemetery in Excelsior Twp. I'll type them as quickly as I can. Kathy Waddell ______________________________

Hi Kathy, I just wanted to tell you how grateful I am for all you time consuming work. I already know of several I have buried at Walnut Hill. I suspect there are more. In the other cemeteries I have the same situation. These indexes will be a tremendous help to my research. You are a terrific person for all you share. When you posted the information about the newspaper clippings that are on line I was able to find 5 articles that directly linked to my family and many more that were of 'general' interest to me. Thanks for all you are doing to help us that have ancestors that lived in Wisconsin. Susan

Kathy, you have done a beautiful job! I thank you from the bottom of my heart. It answers a lot of questions for me. RN [email protected]

I am brand new to this list. I just learned my Marsh family moved there after 1870. I am unfamiliar with what is or is not available as far as volunteer services. I just found a death record for Peleg Marsh. It does not give date of birth.or place of birth Death: 21 October 1896 Sauk, WI Vol 1, Pg 0366, Reel 120, Image 1498, Sequence 272735 Sounds about right. Is there anyone in the county that does lookups for death records and obits. My guy was born about 1810-1811 in Nova Scotia, lived in New York, and Lake Co., IL. before venturing to Sauk Co. An obit is probably the only way I am going to know for sure whether he belongs to me. Are obits on microfilm in a county library? He had about 12 children, and I only know what happened to 2. Have a far piece to go. We have a family reunion in a few months, and I'm pushing the envelope to get this family tree done. All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, RN [email protected]
