Church f Jesus Christ f Latter-Day Saints. Genealgical Dept. Scpe and Cntent The Genealgical Sciety f Utah (GSU) and the Wiscnsin Histrical Sciety cperated in a prject t brrw and film Wiscnsin church and cemetery recrds f interest t genealgists. The prject prduced 311 reels f micrfilm cntaining recrds frm 32 Wiscnsin cunties, dating frm the 1830s t the 1980s. Psitive cpies f the micrfilm are available at the Wiscnsin Histrical Sciety and the Area Research Centers; each lcatin huses different prtins f the cllectin. The micrfilm has been gruped accrding t cunty where the church r cemeteries are lcated and each cunty grup has been assigned a unique call number. Due t the filming prcess, there is ccasinally a recrd f a church r cemetery frm a different cunty lcated n a reel f film predminantly f anther cunty, but generally a reel f micrfilm almst always cntains nly recrds f churches and cemeteries frm ne cunty. Each call number therefre represents recrds primarily f ne cunty (call number Milwaukee Micr 70 fr Milwaukee cunty recrds fr example). An exceptin is Stut Micr 25 which cntains recrds frm bth Dunn and Barrn cunties. Accuracy f this finding aid is limited by readability f the film, cmpleteness f the recrd, and staff knwledge f freign languages and scripts. In-depth research int church histry was nt dne by Archives staff. Sme recrds d nt name the church which created them; in thse cases the infrmatin recrded by the filmer is used and ften is the present custdian f the recrd. Missing infrmatin, particularly the recrd type in the reel lists, is due t the ccasinal necessity f wrking frm camera peratrs' reprts r ther finding aids rather than frm the film itself. Anntatins and crrectins can be frwarded t the Wiscnsin Histrical Sciety fr inclusin in future versins f this finding aid. A separate reel list finding aid is prvided fr each call number. The reel lists cntain detailed infrmatin n types f recrds included and years cvered. The reel lists als indicate the languages in which the recrds were written and the GSU film number, in the event that a duplicate needs t be rdered. The reel lists include brief descriptins f the recrd types (birth, baptism, marriage, etc.); this infrmatin was cmpiled frm the film itself. Occasinally sectins, especially languages and recrd types, were left blank when incmplete infrmatin was available. Place Names A few lcatins are nt nw gvernmental units but apparently were in use at the time the recrds were created. In cases where churches mved r merged, the recrd is still listed under nly ne lcatin. Smetimes a single recrd cntains infrmatin crssing cunty lines, especially in the case f missins r circuits. If exact lcatin is nt clear, rather than misled the user with a pssibly incrrect place name, the mre general lcatin f just the cunty is used. Thus it is imprtant fr the user t be
imaginative in searching fr place names. Church and Cemetery Names Church names, if in a freign language, are usually entered in the English frm if ding s will bring all recrds fr ne church -- bth befre and after the church adpted English as its language. Saint is smetimes spelled ut and smetimes abbreviated t St. making it necessary fr the user t search bth ways. Denminatin is listed as it appeared in the recrds with n additinal research dne n denminatinal changed that have ccurred in the 150-year scpe f this cllectin. Thus lines are nt always exact between, fr example, Methdist and Methdist Episcpal r Evangelical Lutheran and Lutheran. In sme cases the present denminatin is indicated fr a church that has changed thrugh the years. Fr example, United Church f Christ may indicate churches which were frmerly Cngregatinal r Evangelical and Refrmed. Sme knwledge f church histry is useful t the user. A denminatin culd nt be determined fr sme recrds.
