On This Date in Minnesota History: February 23


February 23, 1999 – A guest on The Late Show with David Letterman this evening, Minn. Governor Jesse Ventura angered many St. Paulites by discussing the “idiosyncratic layout of the city of St. Paul.” He told the host, "Whoever designed the streets must have been drunk....I think it was those Irish guys." He later apologized.

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 available.
