That Kay R., she's the greatest!!!! Love, Schbibby ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ellen- (Genealogy)" <jeanealogist@hotmail.com> To: <WIWAUKES-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, December 30, 2001 7:56 PM Subject: [WIWAUKES] Waukesha Gen Web Page New Goodies Online Greetings to All: NEW GOODIES ONLINE! Kay R., one of our new volunteer typists, found a list of marriages from the Old German Reformed Church in New Berlin, Waukesha Co. She transcribed them and sent them to me. Thank you Kay! The researchers appreciate your hard work. Since they are new entries, I have listed the surnames added at the end of this email. The new family section is online! TaDa!! I hope the new format makes it easier for you to find your people. I took the marriages Jan had on her Wisconsin Marriages pages, and merged them with the births page we had, and with the St. Alban's Marriage listing and the Grace Episcapalian Baptisms. I merged Kay's new stuff with that as well. I will eventually be merging the biosketches with this section to make one combined list. I went to the Waukesha Library yesterday and found a bunch of new stuff. Lots of goodies for you. I found a newspaper article on the Benecke Family from Brookfield. It describes the burial ground located in that township. Ernst Benecke, was the son of a nobleman in Germany. It was an interesting find. I summarized the article and put it on the cemetery page. You can find it by going to the Benecke Cemetery (cem #1) or clicking on the link from the surname in the new Marriage/Family Section. The URL for the Waukesha page is: www.rootsweb.com/~wiwaukes/indice.html This should keep you busy until next year. <GRIN> I have guests coming tomorrow so doubt I will have much time to transcribe. Happy digging.

I am looking for some specifics on the TB testing of cows in Waukesha County in the 20's and 30's. It's my understanding that a herd owned by my great grandfather tested positive sometime in this period, resulting in economic disaster for the family farm. I'd like to learn more about this -- when, how, by whom, etc. Anybody up on this testing program in the Brookfield - Waukesha area? Penny Z. Ford

It's my understanding that a herd owned by my great grandfather tested positive sometime in this period, resulting in economic disaster for the family farm. I'd like to learn more about this -- when, how, by whom, etc.... I would expect that the quarantining of a dairy herd would almost automatically make the local newspapers (such as the Freeman). You might also consider asking the Waukesha County Historical Society. My farming days are far, far behind me, but I suspect that bovine brucellosis would have been more likely than bovine tuberculosis to cause an economic disaster. The similarity of the two words may lead to confusion between the two diseases among laymen. My recollection is that a brucellosis outbreak would take out a whole herd, while a tuberculosis outbreak usually took out only the infected individuals. Rollie
