Now online at Dodge Co. USGenWeb Archives are transcriptions of the marriage and death notices for the local area residents of Dodge and nearby counties published in the Beaver Dam Republican newspaper.

The transcriptions are filed under the "Newpaper" heading in the archive by year of publication. What makes these important, is the lack of early official records in Dodge Co. after the courthouse fire of 1876 which destroyed the early vitals for the county.
