Hi Tat2u4,
Interesting question! I live in Australia so I had to do a bit of a geography lesson first to find where Dane County is located in Wisconsin. But after that here is what I have found for you!
If you go to: http://www.madison.com/ It is the online version of the Madison associated newspapers. Go to "Archives" in the list on the right had side of the page, and to help you search choose the following:
Penny Brummer in first box In the newspapers box, you'll need to change it for each individual search to find hits in the other papers, I kept it on the top one For select date choose: all years (at the bottom of the list)
Then click "search"
I got 20 hits or something like that! The only catch is to actually access the entire articles you need to open an account with the paper (it is 1.25 per article to access) but you can look through them to see what ones you want!
I hope this helps you on your quest! Any other questions or further info needed please send it my way! I'm always happy to help!
