- I was hoping someone could help me here. I am currently working with the
- records of a Trinity Lutheran Church, Howard's Grove, Sheboygan Co.,
- Wisconsin. My interest in this church is that one of my wife's
- gggggrandfathers helped found this church in 1853. These records have tons
- of information on him and his decendents (the records are from 1853 to
- approx. 1950). Today, I stumbled across a genealog file that contained the
- address for the library catalog at Univ of Wisc, Madison. I found the
- following entries there:
-
- TITLE A century of grace, 1853-1953 : Trinity Ev. Luth. Congregation
- U.A.C., Sheboygan, Wis. -- (Sheboygan? Wis. : Diamond Print Co.?,
- 1953)

- and
-

- anniversary, 1853-1978. -- (Oshkosh, Wis. : Jeffrey's of
- Wisconsin, 1978)

- I would be very interested in obtaining a copy of these two manuscripts, not
- so much for genealogical content, but to "flavor" my wife's family history.
- The church records are on an LDS microfilm, and as a treat, I guess, the
- last two frames are a two page history written in German for the church's
- 50th anniversary. I have sent it to my sister to help translate, and she
- has confirmed what the family bible said, that Ernst Wehrman helped found
- the church in 1853, so these histories would add additional color to my
- genealogy collection.
-
- I am interested in any information in getting a copy. As I am rushing to
- finish my Masters Degree in Blacksburg, Va before Sept. when I enter the
- Air Force and head off to Colo. then LAAFB, Calif, I will not have any time
- to head up to Sheboygan, much less Madison. Any help or ideas would be
- appreciated.
-
- Thanks!
