I wanted to let all of you out there know that if you haven't tried looking for information at the research center in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. You should take a few days and check out what they have on hand. While I was on vacation/research/letting grandma see the kids, I took the trip to Sheboygan from Menasha (a little over an hour drive). A relative drove me around the area to take photos of the gravesites and houses where family used to live and then to the research center. I have to say I was very impressed at what they have on hand in their files. I could have spent a few days looking through their files. I was surprised to find a few photographs of family members in different areas. I found many obituaries that I didn't have and probably wouldn't have had the time to look for if they didn't have it indexed. Everyone there was really friendly and maybe a little too helpful. The one lady was so kind she kept finding things for me and I hadn't finished with the first batch she gave me. I didn't want to ask her to slow down, because I was so happy that we were finding SO much stuff!! Just one request. If you have been thinking about sending in your collection of treasures (obits., photos, other tid bits) send a copy into the research center if your not ready to part with it. I overheard several times the people saying that i"t wouldn't be possible if people didn't donate the information." If you think about it that's how a lot of places get their info.
