The records include a financial log book of what appears to be a youth group (1898-1916) of the Norwegian language Baptist church of Halfway Creek, once located east of Holmen in La Crosse County, Wisconsin. Also included are two volumes of official records which include lists of members and a chronological journal or log of significant church events, 1869-1903. It is believed that the Halfway Creek congregation dissolved and some members merged with the First Baptist Church in the city of La Crosse.
Records of the First Baptist Church are sparse and include a 125th anniversary booklet (1852-1977), and two lists of members: 1852-1901, and members as of Jan. 1912.
All Halfway Creek records were written in the Norwegian language, while those of First Baptist were written in the English language.
There are no sacramental records of either congregation on this microfilm. Norwegian
