I don't know whether this is of any value to you, but I was born and raised in Wausau/Marathon, in Marathon County. It seems to me I remember the name Rondeau, in the area and I think it might have been in Mosinee, Marathon Co, WI My suggestion is to try the Marathon Co. Site and see what you can pick up in that area. Shelly Green is the List Mom for Marathon Co. and is a very helpful person. Good Luck, Harry R.
