At the last annual meeting of the Club, held Wednesday, January 5, 1881, the following resolution was adopted in order to take a step that would make the organization perpetual:
Resolved. That all male descendents of those who settled in Milwaukee County prior to January 1, 1843, of good moral character, upon attaining the age of 21 years and complying with the conditions of this Constitution, shall be eligible to membership upon the recomendations of the Executive Committee.
Following is a table compiled from the signatures of the constitution of the Milwaukee Old Settler's Club. The dates of birth and settlement are precisely as given and written by each individual; the time of death and, if living, the present residence, are given. For reference by future generations this table will be found one of the most valuable features of this book:
