Documents Damaged

Hello,

Last nights flooding in the Greater Metro Milwaukee Area damaged documents which were stored in the basement of the Milwaukee Historical Society. The documents were court cases from the nineteenth century. Currently, volunteers are helping to dry the documents.

More information can be read on the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel website: Flood damages historical records. Also, Dick Eastman posted an article on his blog about this topic: Documents at the the Milwaukee County Historical Society Damaged by Water
