Did you know that you can research Milwaukee’s historic German families, like the Dohmen family, in the local German language press with a resource at Milwaukee Public Library?
The Dohmen family’s news and other biographical information has been indexed in a collection cataloged in 2008. Other family names of Third Ward businesses like Ziegler, Andree, Rauschenberger and many others are also found in the index. Of course, Milwaukee’s other “first families” are listed in the index, but so are the people that worked for them.
It’s listed on the online catalog: “Milwaukee’s German Newspapers; an index of death notices and related items” (1844-1950)
Or just ask for what’s casually known as the “German newspaper index” in the Frank Zeidler Humanities Room.
