Sorry, Mikki! The thanks for the tip should have gone to you! Better wear my glasses next time I respond to something! Sorry about that. Thanks so much. Cheryl <<To clean up all of those >>>s that show up when a message has been forwarded several times,....>

Thanks so much for the tip, Sarge aka Gus! It'll be a great help and time saver. Cheryl <<To clean up all of those >>>s that show up when a message has been forwarded several times, what I normally do is copy the message, including all the greater than symbols (>>>), and paste it into my word processor. Then I go into the Find/Replace function (found in the "Edit" menu). I tell it to find > and replace it with NOTHING (not the word, just leave the "Replace With" field blank). Then tell it to go to work. After that, I manually reformat the document the way I like it, copy the whole thing, paste it into an e-mail, and send the critter.

Thank you to NAN for providing the lookup information from the 1890-91 Waukesha Landowners book. I now have section numbers to help determine where they were and hopefully this will lead to some land records. Bev

Greetings, I am researching Herman Linder, born 1860, Pewaukee twp Waukesha county. 1885 listed as a farmer and single. Did Herman ever marry? If so who ?? Also looking for his death date. Many thanks for your help in locating Herman Linder. His parents are Casper and Anna Linder. Appreciate anyone's help Doreen in OR

I have yearbooks From Antioch Ill. Years of 59-58-57-56--If I can help email me --

I am a Brookfield Central grad and I have the yearbooks from 1974 thru 1977 and will also be happy to do lookups. Please email me privately and I'll take it from there! Joyce (still residing in good ol' Brookfield!)

Several folks on the MILWAUKEE List are offering to do lookups in their highschool yearbooks and I thought that was a great idea so I'd like to offer to do the same for our WAUKESHA list. I have Brookfield Central High School yearbooks from September 1958 through June of 1962. And remember, that's teachers as well as students, so it covers a wide span of years. For example, some of the teachers had to be in their late 50s or early 60s when I was a freshman, so figure they had to be born right around the turn of the century. Between the four yearbooks I have 1,600+ names in Waukesha County during that four year period. If we could get a few more people with yearbooks from other high schools and time spans in the county, we could cover a lot of people. Email me privately with names you'd like me to look up, I'll post the results to the list so everyone can benefit. Sherry (demoted down to the Flatlands of Illinois but still a die-hard Pack Fan!) Surnames: SAMPICA/SANS PITIE, WHITE, COOK, HERON, STALEY, DENIO, LABARRE, BURLINGHAM Also: RADULOVIC(H), POPOVICH, RICKERT, BENZ, ZIMMERMAN, IFKOVITZ
