The Wisconsin Historical Society is very proud to announce the
Dictionary of Wisconsin History
(http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/dictionary/). The online dictionary
gives more than 2,000 brief lives of famous Wisconsin people (and many
not-so-famous ones). It provides the exact location of every community
and civil township in the state, and explains how every county and 800
cities and towns got their names. You can even display a map or
satellite image of any city, town, or village with a single click. The
dictionary includes mid-19th century descriptions of about 500 Wisconsin
cities and towns from contemporary gazetteers and travel guides, too.
You can imagine how this could help your genealogical research or just
give you some interesting facts about Wisconsin history. We also
encourage you to submit entries to help us grow the dictionary.
The Society has also been busy adding 3,500 entries to the Wisconsin
Name Index (www.wisconsinhistory.org/wni). For those of you unfamiliar
with the name index, it was started about 1870, when WHS staff made a
catalog card for every biographical sketch in each new Wisconsin county
history. They made a similar card for every obituary added to the
scrapbooks they called the "Wisconsin Necrology," and frequently added
cards for magazine and newspaper articles about Wisconsin residents.
After more than a century of such work, the data on the original cards
was typed into a database that you can search online today.
This time we have indexed Wisconsin World War Obituaries, a three
volume scrapbook, containing newspaper articles and obituaries about the
men and women of Wisconsin that served in the military during World War
II. The index is available for you to find listings of your ancestors
at your local library, through library loan or you can order copies from
our Wisconsin Genealogical Research Service
(www.wisconsinhistory.org/genealogy/ogrs).
Please forgive the length of this post. I hope you have found it
useful.
Best,
Melissa

Hi,
There is a township named Sullivan (originally named town of Oak Hill) in
Jefferson County and there also is another township named Concord in Jefferson
County with a city named Sullivan (I've been there many times in younger
days.... used to go camping there for their volunteer fireman's 4th of July
Parades, competitions and picnics. Also spent many wonderful hours canoeing the
rustic, beautiful Bark River nearby ). Jefferson County was formed in from
Milwaukee County in 1836 and earliest registration dates are:
Birth - 1852
Marriage - 1844
Death - 1856
Hope this helps,
Rita - Oconto County CC

Perhaps it is Sullivan town and they just left the county off which is
Jefferson.

Hi All,
Continuing the idea of Sullivan in Jefferson County, I checked the
book "Wisconsin: It's Territorial and Statehood Post Offices" by the
Wisconsin Postal History Society and found these items about Sullivan WI:
Sullivan 1: Post Office established Jan. 20, 1846 with Joshua W
Osgood as postmaster. It was discontinued Feb. 6, 1883, with mail
service from Oak Hill. Location unknown, other than its location was
Jefferson Co.
Sullivan 2: See Winfield.
Winfield: Established Sept. 22, 1879, with Casper Braun as
postmaster. The name was changed to Sullivan April 4, 1883 by Casper
Braun. The office is still in service, zip code 53178. IN 1878 it was
located in the NE 1/4 of Section 25, Town 6 North, Range 16 East in
the Township of Sullivan and by 1899 it had been moved to the NE 1/4
of Section 3.
The requester of the info may not be aware but in typing the
Waushara, Green Lake and Marquette County biographies for the
Marquette site, we are finding a number of errors in old county
histories about locations, such as Centralia twp instead of the city
of Centralia in Wood Co., etc.

Hello,
I am researching my family tree and came across a biography of a relative.
The biography stated that he moved to Sullivan county WI in 1859 but I do
not see a Sullivan county listed. Is it know by some other name now?
Al Worthen
If the guy could give us the rellies name and info, we could try to find in
the 1860 census.. (Maybe the author ment Sullivan, Wi. not Sullivan county)
