I have been on a quest for several years to trace my familie's lineage on my Father's side. I have run into a big wall with my Great Grandfather. He is George Riddell and his name appears in the 1855 Wisconsin State Census as a resident of Palmyra in Jefferson County. By extrapolation, I think he was born in the year 1822, probably in New York.I have been to the local Family History Center and in spite of their wealth of resources, have been unable to find any information about George Riddell. I would greatly appreciate any help at this point and I would gladly pay whatever fees are required to do a search of Jefferson County records. George moved from Palmyra to Chippewa Falls sometime after 1855 because in the 1880 census, he is listed as a resident of Chippewa Falls. According to the Genealogical Society in Chippewa Falls, George Riddell was a physician. He was married to a "Sybil" and as of 1880, had four children as follows: Lilly, age 20, Mabel, age 13, George (Jr.) age 9 and John (my Grandfather), age 6.
I am trying to find out who his parents are and where they came from, when, etc. Any light you can help me shed on this would be tremendously appreciated!
Sincerely,
John P. Riddell Jr. riddell@cts.com

My great-great Grandfather, John H. CAMPBELL, came to Dodge County no later than 1845 and perhaps as early as 1843. A son, Almond B. CAMPBELL, was born in Dodge County 21 Aug 1845, and a daughter Elzorah was born there 13 April 1847. I do not know where in Dodge County they lived. Another son, Charles Clinton Campbell born 11 Jan 1844, may have been born in Dodge County. I am unsure where he was born.
By 1848 the family had returned to Rockford, Illinois.
I am seeking information on where they might have lived and where the children were born. What kind of records might be available? Any suggestions on where to look would be helpful. Thanks.

I found an entry in a book entitled: The History of Waukesha County, Wisconsin" copywrite by the Chicago: Western Historical Company; on page 864...
It seems that Christian LINGER spent a fair amount of time in Jefferson County...where would I look for tax records for him? What was the name of the Catholic Church in Jefferson, Fort Atkinson, and Watertown in the 1860-1870's?
Does anyone have any suggestion how else I could find information about this family?
"CHRISTIAN LINGER, Dentist; was born in the Rhine Province, in 1838, and in 1844, came with his parents to Milwaukee, Wisconsin; his father being sickly and poor, the support of the family depended upon the children, which required all their efforts. When 16 or 17 years old, he began working and studying in the office of Dr. Jennings, a dentist of Milwaukee, and continured with him for three winters, working at farming during the summers; he next worked at the carpenter and joiner's trade for a short time, then was engaged in the mercantile trade for some time. November 5, 1871, he was married at Fussville, Waukesha County, to Miss Eva Michaels (as spelled in book), a native of Washington County, Wisconsin; born September 9, 1847. They removed to Jefferson, Jefferson County, Wisconsin; engaged in farming for a year, then settled in the village of Jefferson, and kept a confectionary store for about a year, after which he traveled for a year or two, selling medicines; he then resumed the study of dentistry with Dr. Townsend, at Jefferson, and remained with him two and one-half years, then pursued his studies and practice with Dr. Crandall, at Fort Atkinson, for six months; returning then to Jefferson he disposed of his effects and came to Oconomowoc, where he has since practiced his profession since August 1870. Their children are as follows: George, born Sept 19, 1863, died Sept 19, 1863; George Jr. born November 18, 1864, died February 20, 1870; Matthias, born November 8, 1867, died March 13, 1870; Lizzie, born October 9, 1869; Joseph, born November 10, 1871; Henry, born October 20, 1873; Anna C., born February 5,1875, died March 5, 1878; Christiana G., born June 13, 1876, died September 3, 1877; Michael J., born August 22, 1878, died September 8, 1878; Maggie M., born February 1, 1880.

How would I find where the MICHEL's farm was located "near Jefferson" where my gggrandfather was taken to be buried? (At least I believe this is the same George MICHELS who was married to an Anna Marie Thiel and first settled in Washington County, then moved to Jefferson County...their children included: Eva Michels, Elizabetha Michels, Ann Michels and Joseph Michels. By 1870, Anna is living with her son, Joseph MICHELS, in Granville area of Milwaukee County.
From: WATERTOWN DEMOCRAT: Thursday, November 19, 1868: Drowned--Last Friday night, Mr. George MICHELS, a farmer residing near the village of Jefferson, was drowned in this city, having fallen into the river near Bursinger's Brewery, where the old bridge used to stand. His body was required last Saturday and taken to his home for burial. He was a man of some property. He was in the habit of drinking and it is supposed that while under the influence of too much liquor he some way accidentally stumbled into the water and lost his life.
If anyone knows how I can locate tax records or land records on this individual, please let me know.
Thank you, Susan snokes@tscnet.com

Samuel Chatwood (infant) died about 1850 and is buried in Dodge county, as parents (William and Frances Chatwood) owned land in Hubbard Twp. They emigrated from England in 1849.

Dear Mr. Janke, I was referred to you by friends. I am searching for the baptism information on an uncle and aunt that were born in Wisconsin. I hope to link to Wisc. relatives via the names of the sponsors. Their information is as follows: Parents: Frederick Wilhelm Ludwig Kahn and Emilia Augusta Carolina Rowe 1.) Otto Ernst Ludwig Kahn Born October 12, 1882 in Ashburn (I believe this should be Ashippun) 2.) Anna Maria Luise Kahn Born September 1, 1884 in Examia (I believe this should be Ixonia) Note that the original spellings are from Church book records from a small church in Southern MN. I imagine they spelled the town names like they sounded. Note: Frederick Wilhelm Ludwig Kahn's mother was a Zastrow.
Please let me know any charges that result from the search and I will send payment. Also, I would love photo copies of the baptism records. My address is: Joanne M. Becker 14630 54th Street N.E. Rogers, MN 55374
Thank you in advance for all your efforts.
Sincerely,

My ancestors Johan F. THIEMAN and his wife Dorothy Louisa ______ came from Prussia to Dodge Co. in 1846-47. Johan bought land and lived on Section 18 in Theresa Twp until 1865 moved to Fayette Co.,IL. Children that were married in WI were:
August (Johan Fred August) m. July 8, 1864 to Maria Caroline SCHLEI dau of John & Dorothea Charlotte _____ SCHLEI. religous ceremony performed at Theresa Twp? by John Hockendorff? of Ixonia, Jefferson Co. WI
Caroline m. Sept. 9, 1860 to Christian MULLER, judicial ceremony performed at Willianstown by ______ of Mayville
Mary was 10 years old in 1850 census, but not listed in 1860 census, unknown to me if she married or died.
Charles (Carl Fredrich) m. May 28, 1866 to Auguste W.H. BRAASCH dau of Wilhelm & Emilie ____ BRAASCH. religous ceremony performed at Theresa Twp? by John Hockendorff? of Ixonia, Jefferson Co. WI
The above marriages were taken from copies of the original licenses at the U of WI - Polk Library.
I would like to determine which church the THIEMANs attended and obtain copies of the church records for the above marriages. I am trying to find the maiden name of Johan F. THIEMAN's wife, Dorothy. I think it might be HUCKE? After the THIEMANs moved to Fayette County, they lived in a german luthern community, so I guess they were lutherns. Johan died ca 1872 in Fayette Co.? and Dorothy was alive (by deed record) in 1890 in Fayette Co. Any info or direction you could give me would be appreciated. Thank you.

My Grandfather was named John Gottfried URBATSCH born March 29, 1846 in Silesia, Mangersdorf, Germany (I believe) and was married to Margaretha GREISHAMMER. Margaretha fathers name was Erhard GREISHAMMER. I know that there is family information in Wisconsin at the court house of Jefferson or perhaps Adams Co.

I think that they were only in Dodge County for up to a year around this time, as they immigrated in 1867 and were in Shawano Co. in 1869.

This information is from the section on Schlessinger in a local newspaper on the day of Hulda's obituary. I know this is not much, but the Wagner name is a totally new "find" for me which I found by accident while rereading my obits(which I have had for years!!). I am guessing that one of her grandmothers married a second time (the first to a Burow or Jaecke) and hence the Wagner name. Thanks for even trying!

Looking for info on ancestors who settled in Jefferson Co. in the 1830's. Reuben Mason KEEN and his first wife Sarah BATES KEEN moved from Lewis Co., NY to the Milwaukee area around 1834, then to Jefferson Co. in 1835, perhaps to the Lake Mills area. A family letter says that Sarah and a daughter Mary were the first white women the cross the Rock River west of Milwaukee and that the family settled with Winnebago indians. Sarah BATES KEEN died about 1836 and Reuben married Aner or Anna EDWARDS around 1837. She died around 1845, perhaps in Grafton.
The 1837 Wisconsin State census lists Reuben in Milwaukee Twp., Jefferson Co. The 1838 census lists him in Milwaukee Co. The 1842 census lists him in Aztaton Twp., Jefferson Co.
Do you have any more info on Reuben and family? Thanks.

I'm a new member and wonder if the Civil War records of Jefferson Co. residents are indexed.
Could someone check the record of Adam McGowan (1807-1868)? He may have been made a brevet Brigadier General during battle during the Civil War, but I do not know what unit he was in, presumably cavalry.

My great, great grandfather, Karl Heinrich Friedrich SEYFERT and his wife Anna Barbara MUELLER came from Germany to Wisconsin in 1845 and settled in Theresa, Dodge County where they homesteaded in 1848, eventually owning their farm in 1857. The description of the property is #16468, NE 1/4 of SEC 1-22-17 (148 acres), just north east of Highways 28 and 41 on H Road and eventually some of the land became a wildlife area. I plan on visiting there next month to have a look at the farm and the wildlife area. I would like to obtain copies of any records pertaining to them that you might have. Also, is there a book on the history of the area which I could purchase and where? Thanks! - Dave Seyfert, Colorado Springs
