Biography Project

To expand and enhance our history and genealogy collection, we are launching an effort to build a collection of biographies of people who lived, worked, and enjoyed life in the Galesville, Ettrick, and Trempealeau area (including rural areas).  To help with this effort, you are invited to submit information on your parents, grandparents, great grandparents, and other family members, who lived in these areas.  Simply complete the following form and return it to Old Main—either by completing the fields below or downloading the file below and returning it to Old Main via email or U. S. Mail.  Eventually, the collection will be available on-line and should provide a wealth of information for genealogists, now,  and in the future.
