Thank you so much Jim!! You've been a great help to me. Now, I'm on the track for more information on the death of his son James Jr.
From the Milw. Sentinal- 1881
"James P. Haslam was run down by a locomotive and killed near the roundhouse in Berlin"( Green Lake Co.) "Saturday afternoon." 21 may 1881 is his death date. I can't believe someone could get hit by a locomotive, close to a roundhouse, surmising the locomotive was probably going much slower then normal, because of heading into the roundhouse. Would I be able to find out anymore information, through the Rail Road information? I'm aware that there is only so much written information, yet available.
