Abstract:

Papers, mainly 1928-1956, of Merton E. Krug, a Wisconsin historian primarily known for his work on the Upper Baraboo Valley and the trader, John Baptiste DuBay. Included are genealogical materials for the Fish family to which he was related, autobiographical documents, college term papers containing personal information and information on Wisconsin history, research material, and assorted writings including newspaper articles, poems, an address, and an incomplete manuscript and proofs for his research on General William Hull.
