The State Historical Society of Wisconsin has an on-line Wisconsisn Genealogy Index which indexes the pre-1907 vital records and other records. It is available at http://www.wisconsinhistory.org/vitalrecords/<br> | |||
The pre-1907 vital records index lists births and deaths. Marriages are only indexed for counties Adams-Racine. It does not include marriage records for counties Richland-Wood. <br> | |||
The society houses collections of regional interest at area research centers. These centers often have census records; pre-1907 birth, marriage, and death records; probate records; tax records; school records; church records; naturalization records; and other local historical records. | The society houses collections of regional interest at area research centers.
