    3. Bonni, I am in the process of entering the info I have into a master data base. The info comes from on site tours of the cemeteries cross referenced with Historical Society files, Military records, and newspaper obit indexes. The cross references aide with dates and the spelling of names that are hard to read. In addition, the obit index many times gives maiden, spouses and parents names. The goal at this time is to have detailed information through about 1930. At present I am concentrating on the oldest sections of the cemeteries. Many of these are in really bad shape. In the future, I would like to expand the date to 2000 as time and resources permit. St Theresa's Cemetery (Catholic) Henry Schafer 1881-July 11, 1945 Eugene Schafer 1932-1941, son of Henry Schafer Looking through the old Directories I found these. In the Waukesha Co City Directory of 1890-91 City of Waukesha: Busse, Goerke, Keuper City of Oconomowoc: McCormick Brookfield Village: Goerke In the Waukesha Co Farmers & Land Owners Directory 1890-91 Busse: Pewaukee, Lisbon, Brookfield Twps Goerke: Brookfield, Pewaukee Twps Keuper: Brookfield Twp McCormick: Ottawa, Eagle Twps Shafer: Muskego Twp If you would like more details on these I will be happy to send it.
