Historical Context
The Wisconsin Telephone Company is now known as Wisconsin Bell Telephone (having changed its name in 1984). The company is the name of the Bell Operating Company serving Wisconsin. They are a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T Inc.
Current headquarters are located at 722 North Broadway in Milwaukee. After the 1984 Bell System Divestiture, Wisconsin Bell became a part of Ameritech, one of the 7 original Bell Regional Holding Companies. The Wisconsin Bell name continued to be used until January, 1993, when they dropped all of their individual Bell Operating Company names in favor of using their corporate name, Ameritech, for marketing purposes.
In 1998, Ameritech sold 19 Wisconsin Bell exchanges, primarily located in central and northern Wisconsin, to CenturyTel.
After being held by AT&T (pre-1984), Ameritech, and SBC, as of 2005, they are now part of the "new" AT&T.
