Woelful Family Record
This book is a religious volume of some sort, meant for Catholics.
The title
is Handpostille ober chriftkatholifches Unterrichts und Erbauungsbuch,
The C. Wildermann Co., New York. No copyright date but the latest mentioned
date in the volume's comments is 1899, so it must have been printed after
then. It is in fair condition, with many pages separated from the book.
I cannot transcribe most of these names and dates. The places
mentioned
are Chilton and School Hill, which are in Calumet and Manitowoc counties
in Wisconsin (adjacent to each other).
There is a lot of stuff in this Bible, including flowers and
paper items.
There is a card for Rosina Buschmann for some sort of religious event
on 7 April 1899. There is also a photograph of the Senate Chambers of
the Wisconsin State Capitol. Also, there is a card with a drawing of a
donkey, labelled "Be it ever so humble."
Transcribed (sort of) and in possession of Tracy St. Claire
tracy@stclaire.org .
Book returned to descendant Robert Mulvanny (redandbon@comcast.net),
of Murietta, CA.

These appear to repeat the same entries as the earlier
page -- at least the years are the same. The only
English entry is as follows:
Clarence died June 20 1926.
