Manitowoc County-Genealogy
I apologize for the delay in updating this section. Shari has been working diligently getting more stuff online. The following are additions to the site for the last month.
Friday - July 27 Added maps of the townships with the cemeteries marked on them and also maps of the main town in the township (where I had one). Most of them show where the cemeteries are in the town. The can be found by clicking on “Cemetery Transcriptions” and in the list of cemeteries right under the name of the township you’ll find the links.
Thursday - July 26 #44 Added tombstones for: Herbert Belbeck, Betty Blahnik, Marie/Albert Brehmer, Kate Truman Burgess, David/Charlotte Crehore, Ka Hang, Theodore/Mabel Helgerson, Linda Johnston, Louis/Pauline Reitmeyer, Blanche Shimek, Jane/Lydia Shimek, Stazie/Joseph Sleger, James Stefl, Agnes Truman, Elizabeth Truman, Horatio Truman

Wednesday - July 18 Last night I was working to get some more tombstone photos online for cem. #16 and there is a saying, to really mess up something fast, use a computer. I was opening a bunch so I could see the names to code the link to the photo into the transcriptions, held down the control key so I could highlight the ones I wanted then click “open” and all the ones I highlighted would open at once..well….I got about 30 of them highlighted and found one I wanted to change the name of, so I right clicked the pic and changed the name. Problem was it changed the name of all 30 files. I got them fixed this morning but someone sent me the photos for #44, so I decided to put those online first then finish #16…or try. Put tombstone photos in #44 for these people: Budweiser Anna/Charles; Busse Delmar; Camp family stone; Chase Lorena; Clark William/Mary Haese Adolf/Viola; Haese Dallas; Haese Wilmer/Hazel; Haese Wilhelmina/Albert; Holly Anna Holly Eulalia/Paul; Holly Joseph C; Holly LaVerne/Anna/Alvin; Holly Nicholas/Julia/Robert Holly Nicholas; Holly Stephan/Mary; Korcian Blanche; Lorenz Ignaz; Luecke Otto Naidl Harold; Palmer Esther; Patterson James; Peterson Charles D; Pope Ruth/Everett Rick John/Georgia; Schmidt Charles/Charles; Schmidt George; Stadelman Joseph Toombs Joseph/Sarah; Webb Harry; Wilda Anna; Wilda Emil; Wilda John; Zander Barbara/Helmuth
