Abstract:

Records maintained by the Town Clerk, Treasurer, Assessor, and other officers for the Town of Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. The town was created in 1838 and disappeared as a legal entity in 1955. Records document both the evolving forms and functions of town government and the transition of this local area from a sparsely settled agricultural frontier to a distinctly urban and suburban region.
