Karen,

The University of Wisconsin Digital Collections Center recently 
digitized 1600 lantern slides from the Brittingham Family. 
http://digicoll.library.wisc.edu/WI/subcollections/BrittinghamImgsAbout.shtml
I'm sure the people in the UWDCC would be happy to answer any technical 
questions you might have.  You can send them a message through the 
Technical Assistance link at the bottom, or if you want to contact me I 
can give you actual names.

One note is that the slides are housed in the University Archives, and 
our photo archivist agreed to clean the slides, which was a much longer, 
involved process than we had originally thought it would be.
