Subject: [ROOTS-L] Subject Bangor, LaCross, and Hersherville, WI

In answer to Barb's question about these cities, I have found that by using my search engine, (I usually use Google) and typing in "Early History of Bangor, La Cross Co., WI" I can get numerous hits....or whatever city, county, state is involved.
I do a lot of searching in Vernon and Monroe counties that are neighboring counties of La Cross and this has worked for me.
You can also find these cities at the message boards at Genealogy.com and Rootsweb, and other researchers are the most helpful people in the world when it comes to genealogy.  Most of them will be happy to try to find bits of data for you without charge, but they do remind you to pass the favor on to others when the opportunity arises.

Good Luck!

Shirley




Subject: Bangor, LaCross, and Herseyville, WI--Help needed

I would appreciate communication with anyone who has knowledge of these 
areas. My ancestors lived in these areas 1856--1870.
