Peterman Resource Center (genealogy site for
Peterman family)
Their vital records database includes Peterman/Petermann listings
in pre-1907 Wisconsin Vital Records Index (note that in this
index birth records S counties are mixed up - StCr = Sheboygan Co.
and Sheb = StCroix Co. and no marriages were indexed for
Sheboygan Co. I was told they were indexing alphabetically by
county and ran out of money part way through Racine.)
