NEW! Our Family Connections

We've added a forum called Our Family Connections to our site. On the new forum you will be able to interact with other family members and discuss research questions, family reunions, or just chat with other family members. Please take a moment to check out the forum by clicking on the Our Family Connections link at the left of each page. Be among the first to add your comments at the forum.

Event Maps

Please check out the Event Map section on each individual's page. Now you can see at a glance where a person was born, died, resided, etc. Click on the balloons on each map to see the events that occurred at the location. Click on the balloons to the right of each map and a new page will open containing a full map of that location.

Maps are also provided on the Cemetery pages to help you easily find the cemeteries. And if you look up a place, it will also provide a map.

What Was It Like Then?

Have you ever wondered what it was like to live during the times of your ancestor (or descendent)? Try out the Timeline feature found on every individual's page. After finding a particular person's page click on the Timeline tab near the top. What you will receive is a list of many the special events that occurred during the person's life. You can add (or delete) people from the timeline using the appropriate buttons. Give it a try. Did your ancestor live when they invented the slinky?

Popular Histories


Simeon Navarre Memoirs of Simeon Navarre. This Wisconsin Navarre family pioneer took the time to record his memoirs on several occasions. He recalls many events during his lifetime, from his birth in France, to his journey to the United States, to his pioneer life in northern Wisconsin. There appear to be missing pages in the memoirs and we are asking any Navarre family member who may have them to please share the pages with us.

John V. Beck Andrus Family Histories. In 1985 John V. Beck published his book Elisha S. and Lavina (Locke) Andrus - Their Ancestors and Descendants. We now present some excerpts from that book.

Augustin Grignon Augustin Grignon's Recollections. This complete transcription of the recollections of Augustin Grignon provide us with a vast amount of information about Wisconsin history.

Joseph Schraufnagel Schraufnagl History. We've run across a history of the Schraufnagl family (aka Schaufnagel). It's possible that it describes our Schraufnagel's.
