Nan, Thank you for the information. I believe Nels Hansen of Pewaukee would be my Grandfather. It is so great that you, as well as; others are willing to help beginners such as I. I just wish I knew what I was doing ! Would there be any thing listed for the surname of Kolo or Kolouch, (Joe or Bertha) in Okauchee? Thanks again, Molly

Thank you so very much, Nan. I have done lookups for a very large mail list in the past and know how much work it is. You are truly an angel! Your information fills more gaps for me.

I am new to the site, I see you are doing lookups for people. That is so kind of you. Is there a chance you might find a Nels Hansen, or Neils Hansen, in the Hartland or North lake or Pewaukee area ? Some time around 1904 he farmed that area. It is said that he was one of the biggest farms around. I am searching for any thing I can find for him and his wife, Lillian-Behlman-Hansen. They were married in Pewaukee so I tend to think they lived there too. They were my grandparents and we all grew up in that area. If it is of any help to any one, I have an abstract of the home my Father owned, it dates back to July 2,1839. It list all owners from Asa Clark, founder of Pewaukee to my Father, John Hansen, 1955. It also has the wills and testaments of most of the owners. I hope I am doing this list correct. Thank you , molly molly@discover-net.net

My wonderful 85 year old father passed this on to me; I suspect it came from a Reader's Digest, but I don't know which one. Enjoy the chuckle. Mikki Judge A NOTCH DOWN At our annual family reunion, my sister, an amateur genealogist, usually gives some kind of presentation about our ancestors. One time, she went on an on about personal histories, period costumes, and charts of our forebears and their native countries. After what seemed like hours, she paused to ask, "Have I forgotten anyone?" My husband raised his hand and replied, "Yes--Adam and Eve."
