Contact: Susan Knoll Dear Stan, Oh, my
God!! This is my Great-great-grandmother. I have been trying to
find her death certificate since 1984. Thank you a million times.
Who are you and how did you find this? I have written numerous
times to the county clerk and health dept. in Wisconsin to find the
death certif. They can't find it. Do you know if one exists? I even
had people walk around St. Hedwigs cemetery looking for the head
stone with no luck. Please write back. I am descended from Rose and
Joseph Konwinski. Obit: Herman, Catherine (1848 -

Contact: Stan Susan, My wife and
I are using our retirement years to post historical and
genealogical information for Clark County, Wis. on a non-profit
internet site. We are going through the old newspapers for the
county, which are carried on micro-film at the Wiscconsin State
Historical Society in Madison. Even though we live in Rochester, MN
we can order the micro-films through library loan from Madison. I
am currently transcribing old obituaries and marriages from the
Thorp Courier. It is amazing how
many of these old obits and marriages are of interest to folks. I
am glad this one was helpful to you! I do not have anymore
information about Catherine. Thanks! Stan Schwarze © Every submission is protected by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
