NEWSPAPER “Clippings”

Kaukauna SUN Newspaper “Clippings”

The following snippets from The Kaukauna Sun I have been unable to verify which person to attach them to. In many cases there is not enough information to attach them to the correct “John Doe”, as there may have been more than one “John Doe’s” living in the area at the time. Or it may be that the name is not a person related to me or existing in my genealogy database.

I hope that this might help someone match up a date or marriage.

If you think you know exactly whom a specific reference may be referring to, please email me with the newspaper name date of the article AND the name and Birth and/or Death date of the person it is referring to. (Example; Kaukauna Sun dated 9/10/1885 is referring to James Ryan born xx/xx/xxxx son of Samuel Ryan.)

Remember that if you don’t find someone here it may be that I have them in my database and any personal mentions that I have found, I have already included in my notes on that person. For a complete listing of persons in my database go to this web page
