Wisconsin Notable Men

Description (from source site)
An important part of the Great Lakes region of the United States, Wisconsin boasted a population of nearly a quarter million around the turn of the twentieth century. Originally published in 1902, this database is a biographical listing of several hundred important male residents of the state. Each entry includes helpful information regarding the individual's occupation, distinguished achievements, and location of business. Although a number of the entries are for lawyers, judges, politicians, civil servants, physicians, bankers, journalists and educators are also represented. For researchers of ancestors from late nineteenth century Wisconsin, this can be a helpful source of information.
