My name is Greg BORAMAN. I live in London,England.

FISHER/FISCHER - NEURURER
I am looking for my gggrandfather Joseph Fisher (Fischer) and his wife Theresa Neururer Fisher (Fischer) who lived in Juneau Co. Wisconsin. I have found him on the census in 1860,1870 and 1880 and have determined he was born in 1815 in Germany or Prussia. I know he came to the Union Center (Wonowoc) area in 1854. He was married to Theresa Neururer who was born in approximately 1822 in Germany or Austria. He helped found St. Theresa Catholic Church in Union Center in 1863 and he and his wife were very devout catholics. I found them both on the 1860 census along with a Heinrich age 75 and Sophia Fisher (Fischer) age 70 who lived with them at the time. They were listed as from Prussia. Joseph and Theresa had 3 children listed. My ggrandmother Mary was born in 1863. On the 1870 and 1880 census there were only Joseph and Mary listed so I have no idea what happened to the rest of the family. Mary married George Henry Wendlen on Oct. 24, 1884. From then on I have quite a bit of information. Any help on Joseph, Theresa or Heinrich and Sophia or Theresas parents would be greatly appreciated as every other way I go I come to a dead end. Thank you.

BAKER
If someone has access to an 1870 census of Juneau County, Plymouth in particular, I would appreciate a look-up for Lewis Baker. I am interested in information about his children.

THOMPSON
Andrew Austin Thompson, 1816-1888 settled in Sec. 16, Lindina Township in 1854. He and many family members are buried in an abandoned cemetery, behind the present day Moriarty Farm, 4 miles west of Mauston on Hwy 82. Family members have tried to somewhat restore the cemetery, and have gotten replacement markers for Civil War Veterans and a few others. The cemetery was completely destroyed about 1960. Besides my 4th gr. grandfather listed above, there were perhaps 50 graves, we are not aware of any records, but the graveyard appears to have been used by the Seventh Day Adventist Community in that area, beginning in 1858. If anyone is searching burial sites for any of the following Surnames, please contact me, as they may also be buried in the Thompson Cemetery. This list comes from families listed as living nearby, and from the memories of folks still living who had visited the cemetery in the 1930s or 40s. WOOD, ROGERS, GOODENOUGH, TIFFANY, RUSSELL, TRUMBLE, WARD, COWLES, MOSIER, COLE and PHELPS.

EGAN
A mystery. Seeking a solution. For some time I searched for the grave of my GGgrandfather James Egan. I knew he had lived in Town of Kildare in the 1850's, married a lady named Catherine (family name unknown), and had four children-- Willam, Catherine, Elizabeth and James. I also knew he moved to Steele County Minnesota sometime before 1870 where Catherine probably died. He is next noted living in the home of Patrick Havey with no wife and no children in 1880. He is not noted again until 1910 when he is living in the home of his daughter Catherine Tracy. He died in 1912 and was born between 1818-1830. His obit says he was 92 when he died. I searched St Mary's cemetary looking for his grave but could only find an Elizabeth Egan nee Kennedy who died Aug 29, 1870 age 22 a native of Townland of Crimblin, County Tipperary. NO Grandpa. About 2 weeks ago I was in St Mary's cemetary and visited Elizabeths grave again and Lo and Behold right next to her stone was a stone for James Egan 1818-1912. That stone was not there when I visited the gravesite about 5 years ago. And the stone looks relatively knew. Who put it there??? Anybody know??? Any info that can be provided on James Egan would be appreciated as I plan to visit Ireland in April of 2000. And would like to visit the Egan part of the old sod. Thanks for any help. T. M. Tracy Oct 26, 1999

FLOOD
My GGGgrandfather, John Henry Flood died in Elroy in 1911, at age 101. Obituaries in the Elroy Tribune note his burial in St. Patrick's cemetery in Elroy. Searches of the cemetery map indicate no John Flood, although two of his children are there. According to the same obituary, his wife Winifred had died some twenty years earlier. The closest we have come to finding her is a grave marker in the Union Center catholic church emetery, listing 'Monica, wife of John H. Flood.'

(8) SUSAN M. b. 1838 Rockdale d. 1888 unmarried.
Notes:
(1) ARZA JUDD was not the s/o ARZA JUDD Sr. b. 1766, but was his nephew s/o ALEXANDER JUDD and ARVILLA BLACKMAN.
(2) JOSHUA ST. CLAIR’S brother JOSEPH ST. CLAIR m. ELIZABETH. he died 1867 in JUNEAU OR SAUK co. widow, Elizabeth, on the 1870 Seven Mile, Juneau census living next to her husband’s nephew, John Wesley St. Clair.

(8) St. Clair/Sinkler/Sinclair line researched back to 600 AD. Anyone on this St. Clair line has an ancestor named Prince Henry St. Clair who arrived on 2 June 1398 in Nova Scotia with 200-300 men on 10 or 12 ships to set up a new colony of Knights Templars. Due to circumstances, it failed to get started. His story is recorded in the letters of his Venetian navigator and in the legends of the Mi’Kmaq Indians plus many other proofs. Children in NS, VT, and MA are now studying about this event as a fact of history. There were hundred of Europeans in North America before Columbus left home. Remember Leif Erickson was here around 1000. In fact, one of Prince Henry’s grandsons, John Escorcio Drummond was related by marriage to the wife of Columbus. So Columbus well knew about Henry’s trip 94 years before. The Sinclar Clan operates a couple of websites that will help you gain new insights to the many St. Clair/Sinclair relatives’ history.
(9) The Byington line is researched back to 1066, the Judd back to 1600’s in England and Stevens to 1700 Wales.
