DREWS posted by Kristen Hurt on Thursday, November 7, 2002

I'm seeking info about My Great grandfathers family. I know that they lived in DePere during the 1920 Census.

BERGLIN, BERGLINE, FOLLETZ posted by Lee Schilling on Wednesday, December 4, 2002

My grandfather Samuel FOLLETZ came from Germany to Manitowoc, WI in 1896 or 1897. His sister came with him, but went to Denmark, married, and was never heard from again. I now know that my grandfather Samuel Folletz’s sister (the one I’m seeking information on—she married someone in Denmark and was never heard from again) married a man named Fred BERGLIN or BERGLINE. I do not know her first name or age, but Folletz is a very unusual name and I'm hoping someone will relate to it.

I am researching Marshall Paul HARTLEY who lived in Brown County toward the end of his life and died there 10/19/1907. I have quite a bit of information about his earlier life and that of his parents and grandparents but am trying to determine where he was living in his final years and where he is buried.
