For this site to continue to change and grow, I need you, the family researcher, to help. You can help by posting your Marquette county ancestor obituaries, queries, births, deaths, etc., submitting area photos, typing obits, or by referring helpful sites. If you have information about Marquette County, such as old plat maps, cemetery records, city or county directories, church records and church histories, or can do look-ups of obituaries or census records, please contact Joan so your name can be listed here as a contributor or look-up volunteer.Click here to send Joan an e-mail
Thought for the Day "We make a living by what we get, and we make a life by what we give" ----Winston ChurchillVicki offers look-ups in a copy of the September 1976 Neshkoro High School Alumni Reunion booklet. There are names and short entries for people who graduated from that high school from 1917 to 1948, and also a list of the teachers. Joan has copies of the indexes to Fran Sprain's three Places and Faces books about Marquette County history, people and places and will do look-ups. (Volumes I & III are still available for sale from the museum) Lori has copies of 1972 and 1980 Marquette County plat maps and will do look-ups in them. Melissa offers look-ups in her copy of the 1995, 1997 and 1999 Marquette County plat books. Charles can do lookups for all the Federal Census. No index available at the archives for 1880, and beyond, so Township location would be helpful for 1880 and later. Joan has a copy of the 2002 Westfield Centennial Book. Check (Index) by Vicki S and send page numbers when requesting a look-up.
