I am finally able to start adding to the site again. Although just a small additional, today I added some deaths sent in to me by a researcher.
Summit Cemetery #152 additions for the Price, Robertson, Pool and Ripsom families
If you have anything you would like to add to the site, please be sure to email me using the link at the bottom of the pages.
Woohoo goes the applause from Irish researchers!
The second phase of the www.IrishGenealogy.ie website is expected to be launched this week. The second phase involves the digitization of Church of Ireland birth/marriage/death records from the city of Dublin and dioceses of Ardfert and Leighlin and Roman Catholic birth/marriage/death records from the Diocese of Cork and Ross.
The www.IrishGenealogy.ie website allows the public to view over 1,300 million pre-1900 Church records from Kerry and Dublin city free of charge.

As a follow-up to his incredibly successful book on the “Springs Era,” John has collected his popular columns from the Waukesha Freeman into a nostalgic romp through the colorful past of our county seat.
Beginning at 6:30p.m. June 3 John will share some of his favorite discoveries from his extensive research and answer audience questions about local history and book publishing for novices.
Additionally, John will sign copies of his books — on sale exclusively at the Waukesha County museum store and research center.
John has graciously signed and numbered a series of just 100 copies of his book for collectors or as an extra special gift (Father’s Day is close). Pre-orders are now being taken and the books will be available for pick up or delivery.
Order your signed copy today by downloading the form at www.waukeshacountymuseum.org under Store: Books or pick up a form at the museum greeter’s desk.

Each memorial day weekend I try to put online something to honor veterans. This year I was able to find two articles in the Waukesha Freeman that listed the names of Civil War veterans that received goverment issued tombstones. I then looked up the obituaries of several of them and put them online.
Check out the Civil War Dead page for a listing of those that received military tombstones.
The following were entered in the cemeteries.

Hello Researchers!
I have copies of the index pages of the Waukesha Necrology index. For those of you who don’t know what a necrology is, it is a collection of obituaries and information on people who have died. The Waukesha Necrology contains information on people who are related to Waukesha in some way. Many of those in the Necrology are early Waukesha Pioneers.
I am looking for people to help transcribe the list of names so that it can be added to website more quickly. So far I have copied about 32 volumes of names. There are 2 or 3 more films to copy the index from.
If you are interested in helping, please email me. Even if you can do only a page or two I would appreciate it.
Thank you for your consideration.
