Thanks.

SO MUCH

Thanks to some nice person. I was emailed the passenger list. This board is full of the greatest people.

Or found in 3 Milwaukee area libraries that have the primary source (at that time) for the state records: Milwaukee County Register of Deeds; Births, Marriages and Deaths (records up through about 1912, but the indexes include even later entries - all info found in 2 online library catalogs).

There were family death notices published for a Caroline Marutske in local German language newspapers.

There are also Marotzke / Marotzka entries for an August, with reference to a Margaretha found in "Milwaukee's German Newspapers; an index of death notices and related items" (1844-1950).

Indexing Milwaukee's German newspapers continuously since 2007 ...
