Hello. Thanks for sharing your story! The Milwaukee historical society, the library, old area publications, and the court house are great starts. The building itself may have old photos or documents, check with Human Resources. They may have some stuff in storage. For a small fee, historical societies will help you in your search. Note: It may be less expensive to become a member rather than pay an hourly fee. Good luck!

That building used to be a part of the Milwaukee County Poor Farm. It was built in 1914 for tuberculosis patients. Later on it was used as a nursing home. It used to be called Muirdale Sanitarium named after John Muir who was considered to be the father of the natural park system.
