Added 2 obits for Naibert #33
Finished the v.p. numbers for the Sn page and started the Sti page. When that’s done, that will wind up the S’s at least all I can do from the information I have right now.

I added an index “I Was Born in America”, Memoirs of William George Bruce Milwaukee: The Bruce Publishing Company, 1937.

William George Bruce born in Milwaukee in 1856, wrote a number of histories of the city, including History of Milwaukee: City and County, 1922, with biographies of city leaders in many fields of endeavor. In his 1937 memoir, he tells anecdotes about his family and about the many Milwaukee people he met in his multifaceted career as a journalist, publisher and leader in public service roles. These people are included in the index, created by Barbara P.
Thank you Barbara for your hard work.

The L’s are as done as I can get them. Thanks to a researcher, I’ve been able to
put many of the marriages from the same day marriage page into the marriage files.
He took the time to look up the records for me.
