About this blog…
This blog was created as a what’s new section for the LinksToThePast.com website. Links To The Past Online Genealogy and Family History Library was put together primarily through the efforts of a volunteer webmaster, Ellen Rohr, and the many, many volunteers that have contributed to the site. The site contains a 10 year plus collection of genealogical resources and information including birth, marriage, death & burial, obituary & cemetery information, marine, military history and veteran lists, and community information for areas of Wisconsin.
I started as a genealogy transcriber for Manitowoc County Wisconsin with Shari Milks. Then adopted Waukesha County from Jan Cortez. As I started collecting data for Waukesha County I found many surnames crossed county lines and either originally settled in Milwaukee or vice versa. I then started the Milwaukee County site as a holding place for all the cross references. I then put together a site for the Spanish American War veterans of Wisconsin and thanks to Shari and a handful of transcribers, we also put together a Great Lakes Maritime history site.
