In 1961, my Great-Grandmother's Sister-in-law, Madge Bischoff Dickerhoof, wrote "THIS IS A STORY of NORWAY VILLAGE and NORWAY TOWNSHIP in REPUBLIC COUNTY, KANSAS from 1869 to 1961". My copy has some damage, but this blog is an effort to transcribe the text as accurately as possible (including embedded flaws), and make it available to other members of our family...however distant.
