Schuster in Wisconsin is represented by five families in the 1850 U. S. Census, all living in Milwaukee. Ten years later the census identifies only 25 families, living primarily in Washington County but also in Dodge, Marathon, Trempealeau, Wood, Calumet, and Buffalo counties. While additional families apparently continued to immigrate through the rest of the Nineteenth Century, the early families are few in number and well congregated, suggesting that there may have been relationships among them. This page serves as a catalog of information about the early Schuster families in Wisconsin and as a source of links to related sites.
Color coding reflects individuals and families tracked across multiple pieces of information.
This site represents an ongoing project to document the history of the Schuster family in Wisconsin.
