Hi! I wanted to share with the list my neat discovery for the day...Did you know you can access the U.S. Geographical Survey pictures for the whole United States? Go to the web page below. Fill in the form. For instance, I entered Wisconsin, Walworth County and cemeteries as the feature name. I got back a list of 35 Walworth Co. cemeteries and their latitude & longitudes. (Unfortunately, it didn't pick up the two tiny cemeteries near our farm: Heart Prairie on Whitewater Lake and East Richmond/Norwegian Methodist on Co. P. But, we'll take whatever we can get. Right?) I clicked on the cemetery nearest our farm. Below the table the options include a topographical map of the area or a black & white aerial photograph. When the map or photo comes up you can enlarge it, zoom in and also move the frame to the area you want. Give it a try, it's pretty neat! http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnis_web_query_form Dawn Brooks

E. (Eugene?) EGAN builder of Robinswood on Lake Geneva is related. He may have had a son named Walter E. and a nephew named H. Chandler EGAN (he apparently learned to play golf in Lake Geneva) who were both golf phenoms in the late 1890's to early 1900's in Chicago. Both played for WGA and won Western Amateur, played on the Harvard golf team and both won Olympic metals in 1904. Chandler later went on to a superb amateur career and designed golf courses throughout the Northwest -- including the first major redesign, in 1926, of Pebble Beach. ANY source of information would be greatly appreciated!
