William Bramwell Sizer Diaries
May 1887

Milwaukee County Police Department

These diaries are a mixture of work and family affairs of William Bramwell Sizer. William was on the Milwaukee Police Department and a member of the Sherman Street Methodist Episcopal Church, later transferring their membership to Kingsley Methodist Episcopal Church and died in 1916. The diaries give a pretty good view of life in the years involved. The diaries were given to me for presentation on this site by family members see contributors page.

MAY 1887

5-2-1887

Charles Tillapaugh was murdered last Wed. night & buried yesterday. Rev. Findlay preached the sermon. Our folks went. I could not go. Went down to Saukville this morn. Wind blew a hurricane all day. Couldn't work out at all.
