I am interested in finding anyone who is also researching William Penn and Mary Cassey Collins from Mukwonago, Waukesha, WI, from about 1860 on. William Penn Collins was the first doctor in the town of Mukwonago, I have been told by the Mukwonago Historical Society. I have more info to share with anyone who is looking for info on this family. Thanks, Bobbie

I see you have the name ROSO in your list, would it be a JOE ROSO, I have a very close friend from Pewaukee that had an Uncle Joe Roso from Waukesha. You can email me if you think this is a name you are looking for. I will ask my friend if she has any info on this for you, molly@discover-net.net

Than you all so much - will add the site of counties to my fav. places. Joan

Greetings! Well, this roll call has me up and running again. :-) I think I asked this once a long time ago, but has anyone ever run across the name Rev. George Silver in conjunction with Waukesha? He was a preacher there in 1849. I do not know his denomination, but the likely possibilities (in order) are Presbyterian, Methodist, Episcopalian, or Mormon. The Historical Museum does not have any information on him, so he might not have been around very long. Which leads me to another question--is anyone aware of any Mormon population in Waukesha County during that (1840-60) timeframe? There is a very remote possibility that my ancestors were LDS for a time, since the man whom I think is my gggrandfather's brother indeed was. I haven't checked into this seriously at an FHC yet, but if it is so, it will make me *very* happy (for obvious reasons). :-) Thanks, Nancy in Colorado

Hi Everybody, I live in Waukesha County and am a volunteer for "Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness" (RAOGK) and as such, I am willing to do birth, death, and marriage lookups at the county courthouse. The county has birth records from 1860, death records from 1872 and marriage records from 1846. I can transcribe the information in the records and email it back to you at no cost. If you prefer to have a copy of the actual record, the county charges $7.00 If you are interested in a look up, please send me as much information (names, dates, possible spelling variations, parents, etc...) as you have to help me identify your ancestor. Also, please be patient with me. I have 3 school aged children and it's more difficult for me to get to the courthouse in the summer when they are not at school. You might want to visit the RAOGK website (http://raogk.rootsweb.com). There are volunteers all across the country helping out- of- towners find records on their ancestors. There are even people who will photograph or videotape tombstones for you at no cost (other than reimbursement of expenses). I have no Wisconsin ancestors myself but through RAOGK, I have received invaluable information from volunteers in New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio. If you have the time, please consider volunteering for your county. More reseachers are needed! Joyce

Oshkosh is in Winnebago County. After years of reading maps with a magnifying glass, trying to discern what county they were in, I found this web site where you enter the name of the town and the state and get the county!!!! It is certainly on my list of favorites now. It lists schools, lakes, etc--towns are called "populated" places and I must say it is a very comprehensive list! http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/web_query.gnis_web_query_form HAPPY HUNTING!!

Hi Judy BIG ??? Why do you refer to Las Vegas as "Sin City"?? How long have you been here that you find the need to refer to it this way. Gail.

I am researching the REGAN family, starting with Patrick O'Regan who emigrated in 1862 (he later dropped the "O"). His wife was named Ellen. They married in Waukesha, and ended up owning a farm in Prospect Hill (Heights?) near New Berlin. They had eight children, including JOHN, DAVID, DOMINIC, JOSEPHINE, MARTIN, and three others whose names elude me at the moment. Any help would be appreciated.

H. and J. Howard had farms in Brookfield (atlas plat maps of 1859 & 1873). Across the road from Alec Lawrence and Augustus Springsted (wife's father). Were these your Howards? Alec's brother's middle name was Howard. They were in western NY before WI by 1850. VT before that. Looking for ggggrandmother(?) Howard. Marj The platmaps include: (Kent), Leonhardt, Lawrence, Wand, James, (Hoan?), Howard, Rathbun, Osburn, Breed, Tew, Bacon, Higgins, Phillips, Root. Info to share.

Hi!! I live in Waukesha and my husband and I bought ourselves the ultimate antique. That's a fancy description for an old, run down, fixerupper, needs some TLC, ok, LOTS of tlc and a new roof 120 year old house. Two steps into this old, almost Victorian home and I fell in love with it. Before we even closed on the mortgage, I researched some of it's history, and now am quite familiar with most of it's inhabitants. The family I'm looking for more information on is Galusha FULLER, (G.E. FULLER). His father was Elon Fuller, and Grandfather, Hosea Fuller, both of New York, and came to the Pewaukee area in about 1836. Galusha was married to Martha WINNE of Milwaukee and had 3 children with her. Louis, Helen, and Minnie. After the death of Martha, Galusha (G.E.) FULLER married Hattie BUTH. Louis moved on to New York, best as I can tell, Helen married Frank Kitson and moved to Illinois and other places south, and Minne married a man by the name of ROUSE. I'd love to find Galusha and Martha's ancestors and share some of what I've found already. Any information on these people would be much appreciated.
