I have tried everything trying to find an obit for my Ludwig Hamm. He was born in 1799 in Hessen darmstadt, came to Us in 1848(nothing on this either) He lived in Greenfield, he shows up on census records as living in Waukesha Co., Wis. He died in 9-23-1884. His first wife Catharine Seidel Hamm, died in 1858, second wife Elizabeth Staack died in 1868 and third wife Lisette died in 4-1888. Does anyone have any ideas where I should go now. I have been looking for info on him since 1980. I have marriage record for second marriage, naturalization papers but no obit or what ship he came over on. I tried going threw his kids one of whom was a policeman and justice of the peace in Milwaukee 1902/07(Charles Hamme) but nothing on him either, not even a death date. Even tho Ludwig died when their were records they don't seem to have him. I am lost on where to try now, any help deeply appreciated thank you linda ----- Original Message ----- From: WIWAUKES-D-request@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, May 04, 2003 2:03 PM To: WIWAUKES-D@rootsweb.com Subject: WIWAUKES-D Digest V03 #66 Content-Type: text/plain WIWAUKES-D Digest Volume 03 : Issue 66 Today's Topics: #1 [WIWAUKES] Obituary Look-Up Needed [will45817@yahoo.com] Administrivia: To unsubscribe from WIWAUKES-D, send a message to WIWAUKES-D-request@rootsweb.com that contains in the body of the message the command unsubscribe and no other text.

Linda, There is a Henry Hamm listed in Memoirs of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin II by Jerome Anthony Watrous, 1909, pg. 359. Have you had a chance to view that to see if there are any additional clues?
