Joni, My interest in the Gottfried Kessler famiy of Sauk City is a result of a possible mid-life marriage between Gottfried Kessler & Christina Boßecker. It appears that Christina & Gottfried may have married in Sauk County in 1855. I was seeking Kessler researchers in Sauk County with the hope that: 1. They can confirm or deny the possible marriage (noted above) 2. They can tell me more about the Kessler family in Sauk County... perhaps give me insight into what churches might have been attended by the family... where the family tended to be buried... etc. This sort of information might lead me to a record that would either confirm or disprove the possible marriage.
