Waukesha and Milwaukee Cemetery Photos

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

I have had a lot of cemetery photos sent to me but I have had not had time to put descriptions with them.

I am looking for someone that would be willing to edit the descriptions of the photos that I have in the gallery.

It isn’t really hard, just involves a lot of cut and paste.

Let me know if you are interested.

Waukesha County Probate Hearings

Thursday, March 6th, 2008

I extracted almost 3000 names that were associated with Probate hearings in Waukesha County. The names are from the period 1860-1945. Most of the names are the name of the deceased, but some may be other people associated with the deceased such as administer name, executor name etc. For full records, you will need to contact the Waukesha County Probate office at the courthouse.

The probate hearing pages can be found at www.LinksToThePast.com/waukesha/probate.php.

Prairie Home Cemetery Waukesha

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

I have been busy updating the records I have online for Prairie Home Cemetery. I was able to move a bunch of names from Cemetery X to Prairie Home. I added many new surnames. Enough that I had to split the cemetery into one page per alphabet letter.

You can find the new listings in Cemetery 173.
