Thank you Bob for the information. One link led me to another and to another with lots of information. I did find one that had a photo of a certificate but it was from the 1890's. The one I have measures 24" x 32" with engravings from top to bottom. I have it framed and have enjoyed looking at it for hours at a time. I always find something new. Again, thank you, Susan (California)
Go to <A HREF="www.Google.com">www.Google.com</A> and type in Hearts of Oak Benefit Society. Second one has a lovely silk logo showing the society. Bob of Brookfield
I have a very large certificate my great great grandfather received when he was admitted to the "Hearts of Oak Benefit Society" in December 1876. Has anyone heard of this society and if so, where can I obtain more information about them? Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Susan (California)

I am trying to locate the grave of an infant who died in the late 1880's. She is listed as being buried in the "U. P. Cemetery, Lisbon". Can anyone tell me to which cemetery this is referring? There is no current listing that I can find for this cemetery. Thank you for your assistance, Lorrie
WAUKESHA FREEMAN March 28 1865 LIFE PICTURES SKETCHES OF WISCONSIN ASSEMBLYMEN This lame man who makes his appearance at this time, is the Hon. Wm. PALMER, of Sauk county. Mr. PALMER is a native of the State of Maryland, of Quaker parentage, a farmer by occupation, anti-slavery in politics from the days of his boyhood, is 51 years old, and 5 feet 7 1/2 inches high. The small amount of hair left on his head is nearly white, wears whiskers old style, balance of face closely shaved; and has small, keen, black eyes, good forehead, fair voice, attends closely to business, consumes but little time in debate. His speech on the Constitutional amendment left the impression, in the mind of your correspondent, that he was master of his business, and was a better speaker than many who indulge in long, windy speeches. Mr. PALMER is a good man, a thorough reformer, attends closely to the interests of his constituents, and a very quiet, useful member of the Assembly. If the majority of this House were of the same moral type, we should have better laws and at le! ss expense. ****. WAUKESHA FREEMAN January 25 1872 A CONTRADICTION The sad story of the freezing to death of Mrs. PALMER, at Graham Lake, is familiar to our readers. Her husband went away from home on some business, and when he returned he found his children a-bed, hungry and cold. On searching for his wife he found her dead about forty rods from the house. The sensational story was thereupon started that she died in consequence of the criminal neglect of her husband, he having failed to supply his house with fuel. Investigation of the case, however, clears him of intentional fault. The story that the woman was taken with labor pains is proven to be without foundation. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN April 2, 1874 Mr. Byron PALMER, a citizen of Geneva Lake, froze that portion of his anatomy brought in contact with a piece of ice by sitting down upon it. He was drawing ice, and while driving sat down upon an uncovered cake, and at the end of the day found it necessary to thaw himself out, and for some time after he sedulously refrained from sitting down suddenly on anything. A popular conundrum at Geneva Lake is: "Why is PALMER like a locomotive?" **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN July 17 1879 James PALMER went into an undertaker's shop at Riverton, Va., and got measured for a coffin, which he said was for a man exactly his size. "Have it ready this afternoon," he said, "for the corpse will be ready by that time." Then he went to the railroad track nearby, lay down on it, and let a train run over him. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN May 31 1888 MURDERED Portsmouth, N.H., May 29 - The body of Henry WHITEHOUSE, aged 22, was found Monday morning near here. His throat had been cut and his head and body were disfigured with gaping wounds. James PALMER has been arrested for the murder. WHITEHOUSE was killed while returning from the home, at Kittery, Me., of a young woman whom he was courting. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN February 14 1889 Fred PALMER, an employee in a paper-mill at Middleport, N.Y., fell into a vat of boiling liquor Friday and was so horribly scalded that his flesh dropped from the bones. He died in three hours. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN March 7 1889 Edward ARTIS, colored, murdered Kittie PALMER, a graduate of the Aurora, Ills. high school, Tuesday, because she would not marry him, and being pursued shot himself through the heart. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN August 1 1889 COULDN'T STAND THE PRESSURE Jackson, Michigan - July 26 - Thursday morning David R. PALMER, who is serving a life sentence for wife-murder, put a false head in a barrel which he had been employed to fill with scraps, placed inside some citizens clothing, a hammer and chisel, got in himself and got a fellow convict to head up the cask. He was carried out on a dray to a freight office, where as the barrel was being loaded on to a car he cried out. The barrel was broken open and Palmer was taken out nearly dead. He said that during the three hours he was inside he suffered terrible torture. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN March 20 1890 Rev. D. W. HELMICK, who killed Ed PALMER at Neola, Ia., on the night of Aug. 19, 1889, was acquitted at Council Bluffs, Friday. The defense was justifiable homicide. It was shown that a conspiracy existed in which PALMER was a principal figure and that HELMICKS life had been threatened. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN June 12 1890 W. M. PALMER, doing business at La Crosse, Wis., under the name of PALMER & Co., loan and real estate broker, has been arrested for swindling by the United States authorities. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN June 26 1890 PEWAUKEE DEATH OF MR. K. H. PALMER - PERSONAL AND SOCIAL ITEMS DIED - At the residence of his son, in Pentwater, Mich., June 19th, of diabetes, K. H. PALMER, aged 78 years. Since the death of his wife the deceased has spent his time in the homes of his children, and it was while on a visit to a son in Michigan that his death occurred. The remains were brought to Pewaukee for interment, and the funeral services were held at the Baptist Church on Saturday. Mr. PALMER is survived by four children. Besides the son mentioned above are a daughter, Mrs. HARRIS of Merton, a son in the Indian Territory, and Mr. D. PALMER of this place. Four children were laid in the cemetery before him. **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN October 30, 1890 ROASTED ALIVE IN A SEWER Decatur, Ill., Oct. 24 - John PALMER, a brick mason, was horribly and it is believed fatally burned in a sewer Thursday evening, where he had gone with a torch to remove a piece of timber. Gas from a broken pipe had escaped into the sewer and the torch caused an explosion. PALMER was frightfully burned about the face, neck and hands **** WAUKESHA FREEMAN April 4 1911 CAPTAIN H. E. PALMER DIES FORMER POSTMASTER AT OMAHA AND WELL-KNOWN G. A. R. MAN Omaha, Neb., April 3 - Captain H. E. PALMER, former postmaster of Omaha, and one of the board of governors of the National Soldiers' Home, died at his home here of apoplexy. He was well known in G.A.R. circles and had immediate charge of the Great Battle Mountain sanitarium of Hot Springs, S.D., the largest hospital for old soldiers in the country. ********************************************** WAUKESHA FREEMAN December 13, 1888 Spencer PALMER was granted a divorce from Nettie PALMER on the ground of desertion. The plaintiff lives in Pewaukee. *** WAUKESHA FREEMAN September 26 1889 PEWAUKEE Mr. S. PALMER of this place and Miss Berlinda POPE of Waukesha were married Wednesday last at the residence of Rev. J. H. CAMERON. ******************************************************* WAUKESHA FREEMAN January 31 1878 OUR NEIGHBORS PEWAUKEE Mr. Abner PALMER is now kept busy. What other one-legged man in the state can saw his two cords of oak wood twice in two every day, week in and week out, during the winter? If there is another let us hear from him. Nothing like pluck. He is strict temperance now and speaking from experience says that he can do more work with less fatigue than he ever could when taking a little for his health's sake. *** WAUKESHA FREEMAN March 6 1890 PEWAUKEE DEATH OF "FANNY" "Fanny" is dead, and who shall say that her departure has left no vacancy in the world! Fanny was a horse with a character; she was the descendant of "Polly," whom some of the old settlers will still remember as the spirited animal owned by the late James CLARK, and to whom Abner PALMER is indebted for having to go through a life on crutches. Fanny, as a colt, belonged to Walter CLARK and was purchased from him by Dr. M.R. HEWITT, twenty years ago, when she was 4 years old. There are not many people around this part of the country but remember Fanny, for Dr. HEWITT drove her far and near for thirteen years. He is indebted to her for many services, not the least of which was upon one occasion by her quick motions and quicker wit, she saved him from the clutches of a highway robber. But she finally became unfit for "professional" life, and the doctor found it necessary to put her out to pasture, for he would not sell her. Since that time she has been carefully cared for ! until on Friday, Feb. 28th, after a day of intense suffering, she died - her work, indeed, well done.

Surnames: Nugent Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/TFC.2ACE/655 Message Board Post: According to family records, Jenny or (Jane) Boles Nugent died in childbirth around Sussex around September 21, 1864 and is buried with her new daughter. Information is that her burial place is not maintained as a cemetery now and is possibly on land being farmed. Jenny's husband was Edward Nugent, who left the area with his 7 children shortly after Jenny's death. The oldest daughter married James F. Wildish in 1867, and there may have been a Wildish connection in WI. I would appreciate any direction any one could give me about Jenny's burial place.
Hi, My grandfather was born in West Gronville (sp?). His name was Frank Teichmann. His father was William E. Teichmann and his mother was Louisa nee Raebel. Grandfather used to say he was born in Waukesha, Waukesha County, Wisconsin. He had a brother Frederick William Teichmann and two sisters, Hattie and Elizabeth (?)Louise. At the time of the Civil War, he was in the process of packing up and moving his family to Pierce County, Wisconsin when he got called to serve. He found someone to take his place for him for a hefty fee and continued to make the move. I am wondering if anyone there has any way to help me with more information on this family. Thank you for any consideration in this. Karen Teichmann Fay
