MILWAUKEE COUNTY FUNERAL HOMES

FUNERAL HOMES KNOWN TO BE OUT OF EXISTANCE:

O'Boyle Funeral Home
The O'Boyle funeral home located on Milwaukee's east side, was a popular 
home in the early years. In the year 1968 Schmidt & Bartelt purchased the 
O’Boyle-O’Brien Lakeshore Funeral Home at 106 W. Silver Spring Drive in 
Whitefish Bay after the death of Mr. O'Boyle.  The records of the home 
were not preserved.  Apparently Mr. O'Boyle's widow did not think the
records were worth preserving, and destroyed them. 

Peacock funeral home 
According to the WI Assn. of Funeral Directors the Peacock funeral home 
went out of business in early to mid 1950s.  The records were not
preserved
