NATIVE AMERICAN RESEARCH
IN WISCONSIN
INTRODUCTION
IN WISCONSIN
INTRODUCTION
Before the arrival of the first white man, Wisconsin was inhabited by Indians. While it is often difficult to trace Native ancestry it is not impossible.
When doing Native American research proceed as you would any other research - backwards, from yourself to your parents to their parents, etc. and from death to marriage to birth.
While the lessons below are numbered one to ten, you may read them in any order. Proceed at your own pace, there are no assignments other than to apply what you have learned to your own research.
Lesson Six - Bureau of Indian Affairs
Lesson Seven - Military Records
Lesson Nine - At the Courthouse
