History of Outagamie County
by: Thomas H. Ryan
Publisher: Goodspeed Historical Association (1911) |
This book is a volume of individuals who lived in Outagamie County in 1911.

Some of them are very informative, including information on two or three generations of a family. Others dwell
on the main members of the immediate family and were an opportunity for the farmers to "puff themselves up."
The book also has some detailed history on the various towns and townships in the county. When they were settled
and by whom, etc. Even some religious history.
Includes history of the cities, towns, and villages throughout the county from the earliest settlement to the present
time; 1391 pp. Index; 1912 |
