April 29,
2002-- Thanks Carol . . .
- One of my favorite volunteers, Carol,
has submitted several histories of Rock County's townships (Avon,
Bradford, Center, Clinton, Fulton and Harmony). Carol has previously
submitted sketches about the settlement by whites of the county,
the police department in Janesville and a listing of Janesville's
Harris Manufacturing Company's executive employees. She has also
submitted over 350 biographies to Rock County's WIBiographies
site (and she's still typing away) . . . see why she's one of
my favorites?

data for the county. Contact
me if you have something you'd like
to submit to the site.
-
- If you want genealogical information,
try the other Rock County sites I host or administrate...
- Other good sites for the county
include can be find on the far left side of the main
page. I'd also highly recommend Cyndi'sList
which links to thousands of genealogical and historical information.
