- Note: This was written in September of 2003 in response
to a request from the State Coordinator of The Wisconsin GenWeb
Project for all coordinators to introduce themselves to one another.
At the time, as now, I was knee-deep in biography transcriptions
from 1879, 1889 and 1908. Copying an old biography and replacing
the subject with me seemed like a good idea at the time.
-
- Lori NIEMUTH, a prominent theological research specialist
and web site designer of Utters
- Corners, Walworth County, Wisconsin, and a resident of that
"city" since 1976, was born in Edgerton, Rock County,
Wisconsin, on the 12th day of March 1972. Her parents, Terrance
and Dawn (WHELAN) JONES, were natives of Janesville and Denver,
Colorado, respectively. At the age of sixteen she began loitering
in cemeteries but was soon afterward employed at a local frozen
custard shop. She remained in this field of endeavor until 1990
when she joined the United States Air Force, removing to Texas
to follow that calling. Life had other plans for Lori, and she
was discharged two days shy of graduation. She returned to Wisconsin
but for a short time, soon marrying and moving to Oklahoma. Her
first marriage lasted but a year and a half after which time
she traveled the country for a few years, residing in Oklahoma,
Texas and Montana. During this period, she attained her education
in theology and archaeology - thriving, high-power fields of
business.
- In 1996, she married Mr. Timothy NIEMUTH of Sheboygan County,
Wisconsin, recently of
- Walworth County, Wisconsin. To them one son was born, viz.,
Jacob, now six.
- Ms. NIEMUTH is independent in politics and has never sought
or desired public office. While not
- connected with any particular church, she has been liberal
in support of all. She aligns herself with various automobile
and truck clubs, as well as the I.B.T.C. of Whitewater.
- She has led a busy and useful life. Possessing a spirit of
"well... okay," supported by indomitable
- energy and pluck, she has never hesitated to undertake a
bizarre assignment, and has invariably carried out her undertaking
with marked success. She has been in charge of WIGenWeb-Rock
County since April of 2001. Since that time she has accepted
positions with the Rock County ALHN, Rock County Biographies
Project, Rock County message boards and mailing list, as well
as ALHN's America's Age of Steam web site. Currently, she and
a friend are digging trenches, similar to those used in France
during World War II, so that they may soon wage war on unsuspecting
visitors.
- A woman of broad view, free-hearted, and ever ready to do
a kindness or to assist those in need,
- Ms. NIEMUTH, by her upright, womanly course, has won the
respect and confidence of all chipmunks who know her.

a while, dontcha think?]
