Milwaukee's German Newspapers Index

Milwaukee's German Newspapers Index I wanted to find Milwaukee's German working-class families, and I did. My indexing is focused on family information. Clearly, I’m doing something right.

My HUGE index created from Milwaukee's German-American newspapers fills a CAVERN in local collections; our DIVERSE German story has always been obstructed by WASP bigotry (think DAR). Back in the summer of 2007, a gift of newspaper clippings from Milwaukee’s German language newspapers was a Eureka! moment: the families themselves placed death notices for infants, children and adults in these paper

s. Clearly, the large German-American community was sharing their family news; these papers were not just a tool for memorializing the wealthy or well-connected as the prosperity-genealogy culture would have us believe. This is the first resource of its kind in Germanic Milwaukee - EVER. The opposition to my effort has been brutal; the spread of disinformation, persistent; and collusion has occurred between multiple organizations to suppress my work. This ongoing work is brought to you by a Democratic Socialist.

Agents in the Chicago area following the old example of ICEy harassment by the Milwaukee County Genealogical Society, but this time harassing cemetery workers: taking them into custody, zip-tying their hands and feet, etc.
Fair warning that your genealogy work in cemeteries, like my library, isn't safe anymore!

Caught on camera… ICE agents clash with suburban cemetery workers trying to help man in Des Plaines River… ...

How do you know Milwaukee's pul'lic lib'arians, genealogists, and (frankly) the average Boomer retiree are lying?
Their lips are moving.
It's a midwestern WASP-evangelical thang, just part of the culture.

“His Lips Are Moving” is a fiery gospel parody that turns Sunday sermon style into a blistering takedown of Speaker Mike Johnson and the MAGA faithful. With ...
