Most WI Clerks will run a range of 10 years - you are charged a fee whether or not they find a match. This is everything found on-line with the spelling POPENFUS - is there an alternate spelling you would like checked?

Be sure to check out Monroe County Local History Museum and Research Room http://www.rootsweb.com/~wimonroe/MCLHMaRR/ They are a non-profit organization - and will do lookups - I suggest you snail mail with SASE. They are free, but gladly accept donations - all donations go to support their work.... Be sure to give them given names and approx dates to help narrow the search.

If anyone is looking at vital records in Tomah, I would greatly appreciate having the date of the following marriage:

Mary Popenfus, born May 28, 1858, likely in Sieroslaf (Posen area), Poland to Joseph Ratkowski. Couple married in Tomah.

The family came in about 1882. I would assume the marriage occurred between 1882 and 1900. Surce: partial letter found in late grandmother's belongings.

Another Popenfus sister was said to be Elizabeth, married to a Mr. Latzkowski.

Should anyone run into these names, I would appreciate the dates of the marriages. I will order the records. I am just not sure the clerks will search a range of years.

Thank you.
