I am a great granddaughter of Ellis Clocksin (Paul Clocksin--Preston Clocksin-- Paula) and I am hoping to learn more about this branch of my family. prior to homesteading in Montana, where in Wisconsin did they reside(city and/or county)? When did the family emigrate and settle in Wisconsin? Are there any other surnames or info regarding this family prior to their emigration? What was the original surname that became Clocksin, Clocksine, Clocksene? I know that I have asked a lot but anything you can share with me would be greatly appreciated.

Paula, your great, great, great grandparents, Gottlieb and Ernestine Glockzien immigrated to Neshkoro, Wisconsin in 1852. They brought their two sons, Julius, 3 and Gustave, 1.
Gustav and Wilhelmine became the parents of thirteen children of whom your great grandfather, Ellis and his twin, Harry were the eighth and ninth.

Hi there Paula,
I found your bulletin when searching for "clocksin". I just saw Martha here a few weeks ago, and I was on my way back to New York (from Illinois), somewhere near where you live ??? when the big storms came through. Anyway, I was surprised to find your name. I miss you a lot. I've told my kids a lot about you, and how you were like my 'best friend' as a kid.
I'm in the process of tearing down the cottage for my parents, and in the process, recalling many old memories. I've thought of you quite often lately and have wondered how you are. I hope this email finds you doing well.
Love,
Dan
P.S. I know you stole that picture of us together, but if you have the means, could you scan it and send me a copy?
P.P.S. Sorry to put this on a bulletin board, but I couldnt seem to find your email.
