If you’re looking for historical information on New Berlin, one good source is the library on South Main St.
Another good source is the 3-book series of ‘Early Glimpses of New Berlin’ by Floyd A Wilber. Here are the details about those books:
- "Early Glimpses of New Berlin and Related Facts", Vol I, by Floyd A Wilber, revised edition 1964, no ISBN number, no publisher listed, 469 pages, does not appear to be copyrighted.
- "Early Glimpses of New Berlin and Related Areas Nearby", Vol II, by Floyd A Wilber, issued in 1967, no ISBN number, no publisher listed, 772 pages, does not appear to be copyrighted.

Notes:
-- Vol 1 and 2 appear to have been typed, copied and bound. Vol 3 was professionally published.
-- All 3 volumes cover the whole time frame of the village and area from Indian and pioneer settlements to a picture of Stewart's (where the Eagle stood). From my thumbing through looking at pictures, Vol 3 has the most information relevant to the 50s and 60s.
Volume 3 is still available from the library:
