	Welcome to the Douglas County GenWeb site! If you have an interest in contributing material to this site or other WIGenWeb Project sites, please contact Jeannette Harper, the County Coordinator of the site or the State Coordinator. Enjoy your visit but get ready for a NEW Douglas County GenWeb Project site! Coming soon!!
	Please note... Over the next couple of weeks I am going to be 'moving' the Douglas County GenWeb site into a new set of web pages. Though these pages will certainly LOOK different, the contents of the site will remain the same! I am hoping this new look will make researching within Douglas County WI just a bit easier. jmh
	A law enacted February 8, 1854, separated Douglas County from the larger county of La Pointe. Superior was immediately selected as the county seat; however, it wasn't incorporated as a city until 1887. This county is named after US Senator Stephen Douglas. Located in northwest Wisconsin, the county seat is Superior. The first survey was done in 1853-54 by George R. Stuntz.
	This web site, part of the WIGenWeb and USGenWeb Projects, is here to assist you in researching your Douglas County ancestors.
	If at any time you want to contribute information to this site, feel free to send me an email message. (Whether you have books, photographs, letters, surveys of cemeteries or any information pertaining to Douglas County, I'd love to hear from you.) If you decide you want to volunteer your services, just let me know! This can be as a look-up volunteer or, someone undertaking the task of transcribing census reports, cemetery residents or any municipal records...
