Welcome from Utah
Funny you should mention settling in Wisconsin. My German side of the family stopped for and settled in the late 1850s but some moved in the middle 1860s to Minnesota. I still have distant relatives in Germany and Wisconsin. If we didn't pick on the Cheeseheads who would we pick onSeem to be quite a few guys from MN that have either been in, or still are in Germany. Good to see our families didn't settle in Wisconsin haha
