Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, was named after Chief Wau-wau-tae-sie of the Potawatomies. The land was sold to the U.S. Government by a treaty dated 1833. The first permanent settlement was made by Charles Hart and followed in 1835 by seventeen settlers. Wauwatosa has dubbed itself the City of Homes. The original boundaries were Greenfield Avenue on the south and Hampton Avenue on the north; 27th Street formed the eastern boundary and 124th Street the western. The Wauwatosa News is a weekly paper, now called Wauwatosa News-Times, that initially came out every Saturday. It was first published in 1885, but after only a few issues were published it folded. It has been continuously published since March 11, 1899, when Charles R. Perry and Lysander R. Gridley formed the Wauwatosa Printing Company to publish the Wauwatosa News. The only known copy of the first paper was found at the historical society. The book starts with April 1, 1899 and goes through May 24, 1904. Some of the entries include: births, deaths, marriages, accidents, sketches of political candidates, business information, crimes, sports news and many other interesting tidbits about Wauwatosa residents. Some of the early residents of Wauwatosa include: Rev. Crawford, Emerson D. Hoyt Lowell Damon, E. D. Underwood, Rev. S. Merrill, Rev. William Talford, Deacon Joseph A. Warren, Hannah Hoyt, as well as many others. There is also a list of Civil War Volunteers who served from 1861-1865. A full-name index is included.

Many Civil War soldiers were interred in this cemetery, and the memorial stones for those soldiers have been included. The earliest birth date found within the cemetery is April 5, 1748, and the earliest burial is 1820. Many times the maiden name of the wife was included on the stones, and some inscriptions also contain the place of birth, place of death, marriage dates, and in one case, the place of marriage, in Germany. Entries include: location of grave, surname, given name(s), maiden name, date and place of birth, date and place of death, inscriptions and comments. Relevant data found elsewhere, such as Civil War service information, has also been included. Not all data appears for each person. This work is complimented with a map of the Wauwatosa Cemetery.

Описание:
Modern Rome is a city rife with contradictions. Once the seat of ancient glory, it is now often the object of national contempt. It plays a significant part on the world stage, but the concerns of its residents are often deeply parochial. And while they live in the seat of a world religion, Romans can be vehemently anticlerical. These tensions between the past and the present, the global and the local, make Rome fertile ground to study urban social life, the construction of the past, the role of religion in daily life, and how a capital city relates to the rest of the nation.
Michael Herzfeld focuses on Rome's historic Monti district and the wrenching dislocation caused by rapid economical, political, and social change. Evicted from Eternity tells the story of the gentrification of Monti--once the architecturally stunning home of a community of artisans and shopkeepers now displaced by an invasion of rapacious real estate speculators, corrupt officials, dithering politicians, deceptive clerics, and shady thugs. As Herzfeld picks apart the messy story of Monti's transformation, he ranges widely over many aspects of life there and in the rest of the city, richly depicting the uniquely local landscape of globalization in Rome.
