Is there anyplace that there is a complete list of all the Family History Books in Minnesota for sale for the different towns? I just received notice on the Otter Tail County list of a book and was wondering if there was a repository for this information. Thank you, Margit

I would like to thank the list for all your help and let you know that I have now contacted the eldest son of Lawrence HANDLEY and Charlotte CURRAN. He and his two sisters are in good health and we are starting to exchange family histories and photographs. Best wishes. Ian Curran.

Dear Listers, I am looking to settle a discrepency in documentation of my Aunt Christines maiden name. I would like to find a marriage record or burial record. William Louis Hubel b: Sept 17,1887 Plover Iowa Married Christine Luft or Leffelman on Nov 7 1907 St Clara Catholic Church in Clara City Mn. She was born April 21, 1890 and died Nov 16 1969 I don't know where she was born but she died in Lynnwood Washington and was buried on the 20 of Nov. 1969 in St Clara's Cemetery in Clara City. Is there someone who can help me to settle the maiden name of Christine. One cousin wrote that her last name was Leffelman but her daughter wrote that it was Luft and I think that the daughter is probably right but their is a difference of opinion from the sources. Would be very greatful for any help Thanks Susan HCV

Hei Ian, Welcome to the Minnesota List! Just to let you know, on this site, there are 141 with Mother's maiden name CURRAN. <http://people.mnhs.org/dci/> This does not make it any easier for you, unless you know the 3 childrens' names. No Children listed in the 1930 census after being married for 7 years? No other information about the family?

----- Original Message ----- From: "Margit" <margit@eot.com> > Just to let you know, on this site, there are 141 with Mother's maiden name > CURRAN. > <http://people.mnhs.org/dci/> This only takes into account that the child is dead or died in Minnesota. If they were born in/after the 1930 census, they would only be at most 73ish. There were ONLY 16 having the last name of Handley (for males). If they had daughters...yes perhaps one of the 141...if deceased. Someone needs to look at the obituaries of Lawrence and Charlotte. This is the prime source. Someone needs to look at the city directories of Minneapolis and trace the family year by year to see if children living at the same address appear in the city directory. The County recorder could have info also; but this particular one is not online. Ron Bestrom

military companies: The Citizen soldiers were militia formed in light of the Indian "threat" for the protection of the settlers. Many of the citizen soldiers transferred to the Army during the civil war, but many soldiers spent most of the war years fighting in the Sioux Indian uprising, and had government permission to do so, untill 1864 after most of the Sioux were vanquished. My relatrive was in the Mankato Citizen Soldiers. When he transferred to the Union army in 1864 his prior experience earned him the rank in of Jr. LT, and he was 1st LT upon cessation of the civil war. I rally do not know much about any particular group, just generalities. I would recommend that you write to the Minnesota Hist Library in Mankato to see if they have interlibrary loans so that you can read up on the Citizen Soldiers.. Good Luck. gloria On Thu, 26 Feb 2004 04:08:53 -0700 MINNESOTA-D-request@rootsweb.com writes: ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand!

Does anyone have any information about Company Colburn's, Citizen Soldiers Regiment Minnesota? I am researching an F. H. Day who enlisted in this company as a private on 01 September 1862. I haven't been able to find out anything about this regiment since it isn't regular army. Thanks to anyone who can help. Mim

Go to Ancestry. Com and put the name in the search names blank. There are many web sites with that name. Bev Carlson researching; ARBUS in Poland, SWATEZ in Russia, CARLSON in Sweden, ALVIG in Norway, SZAPU in Argentina, KRANKEWART in Poland

My apology to everyone. I meant to check on my spelling of Oslo,Norway,and not Sweden. I guess I got my facts mixed up. My Grandfather was born in Sweden and have just been told that he came to America via Oslo,Norway between 1866 and 1868. Meant to ask if a lot of Swedish people did this. Please excuse me I did not mean to sound so stupid or sarcastic. Think I must have gone brain dead. Again I apologize. A.T.

I'm puzzled. Which family is it that you are after? I presume that it's the one in Hennepin Co. and not the one down near Faribault.

Hi Pepper, I'm guessing that you are talking about the Faribault City area in Rice Co. If it's Rice Co., then you would want to write to John Dably for Rice Co. cemetery records. Mr. Dalby spent years walking cemeteries around the Rice and Steele Co. areas and has a very extensive collection of records. http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnrice/dalby.htm If it's really Faribault Co., then you want to look at the cemeteries here: http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnfariba/ You can also search the MN onine death index 1907 - 1996 here: http://people.mnhs.org/dci/Search.cfm Hope that helps, Kathy peppergenealogy@verizonmail.com wrote: > > Hello list, > > I am looking for any information about this family > Abbott Asa b 1842 Maine and died somewhere after 1920 > His wife was Victoria Frances (Franny) Cross, b 11 Dec 1865 in MD.
