Barneveld’s plans to double the size of its public library received a significant boost when Jerry and John Frautschi pledged $600,000 in their grandparents’ names toward a $1.4 million to $1.6 million expansion of the library that has been deemed undersized compared to its usage. The Frautschis’ grandparents founded the Barneveld State Bank in 1898 and were heavily involved in the local community, according to a story at madison.com.
