Abstract:
Church and cemetery records from 32 Wisconsin counties, spanning nearly 150 years from the 1830s to the 1980s. The church records typically contain registers of baptisms, confirmations, marriages, funerals, church membership, and occasionally church constitutions, histories, and minutes. Cemetery records list burials and lot owners. Geographic emphasis is on the northwestern and southeastern areas of Wisconsin. A wide range of Christian denominations are included as well as one Jewish cemetery. The records were borrowed and filmed by the Genealogical Society of Utah (GSU); the originals were then returned to their owners and are not in the possession of the Wisconsin Historical Society. Individual reel lists for each county are linked to this document. To retrieve all those lists, search “Genealogical Society of Utah Project” within the Collection Title on the drop down menu.
