On This Date in Minnesota History: June 19

June 19, 1869 – “Duluth Minnesotian newspaper ran an advertisement ‘3000 Laborers Wanted on the Lake Superior and Mississippi railroad….10,000 immigrants wanted…’”

If you are interested in finding out more about your family history in Minnesota, I specialize in researching  genealogical and historical records in Minn. and western Wis., including:
census records,  birth records,  death certificates, obits, grave site photos, ship passenger lists, marriage records and declarations of intent/naturalization records.  I will visit locations to research local history and county records, as well as take photos. Quick turnaround on MNHS records.  Both short searches and family history reports.
