The first couple Minnesota state census returns are only every name compilations. By 1905 they included birthplaces of the individual and parents and 1895 and 1905 both include how long the individual had been living in the state and in the enumeration district. Military service is also included. I find the 1895 census to be especially helpful because of the missing 1890 returns. Jean R.

Hello All, Would SKS have the time to check the MN 1920 census for a Jennie Grant (b. May 1892) in either Wadena or Ottertail counties?? After both parents died she seems to have dropped off the face of the earth. She wasn't listed in any death or marriage records of either county and not listed in the parents obits either.

The State census are they the same as the federal and were they as accurate in terms as getting everybody. I never thought to look at the state census and am wondering if it is worth it.

Does anyone know if there was a State Census done in the year 1925???? Thanks, Cathie

Hi, Could someone tell me what would be contained in a Death Certificate for Hennepin Co.? From the on-line Minnesota Historical Soc. website I obtained death info on an ancestor, but it states no indexed info for d.o.b., place of birth, mother's maiden name. It only shows full name, ID #, d.o.d. and county. Before I write to acquire a copy, I just need to know if there would be any other info that would be of use in my researching this family, i.e., funeral home name, name of spouse, etc.. Many thanks.

Hi, It depends on who the informant was and how much information they had on the deceased. The funeral home is usually listed as is the cemetery the deceased was removed to. As a whole, the death certificates are worth getting. Birthdates, birthplaces, parents and spouse names etc. are usually listed if known.

To many variables in this request. Hildeguard Marks is not listed on the Minnesota Death indexes. But this one is with this spelling: MARKS, HILDEGARDE CertID# 1974-MN-018862 Date of Birth:03/22/1886 Place of Birth:OUT OF STATE Mother Maiden Name: WILLIAMS Date of Death: 07/08/1974 County of Death: HENNEPIN More information is needed, or they can order a death certificate from this site which will give them more information. <http://people.mnhs.org/dci/> Margit > (Forwarded to List by Administrator) > Hi, > If someone has access to the MN census for 1900 to 1940, I am looking for > Hildeguard Mark(s) nee Duckett who died in Minneapolis in 1974.

Hello, Some of you looked up Reyerson's for me--I was especially interested in Harald. I found him in the NORDRE GRAVLUND CEMETERY in Skien, Norway along with his wife and one son.

Does anyone in the list know if there are templates available online for download for the 1895 and 1905 Minnesota State census. Also, I have the 1905 Blue Earth and 1895 Martiin (part), Meeker, Mille Lac and Morris counties microfilms and would be willing to do lookups. Lois in Oregon

Hello, I'm still trying to find my great uncle and according to immigration papers he went to Watson, Chippawa County. He immigrated in 1888 and his naturalization papers (1ST) are dated Nov 7, 1892.

We are inviting Y O U to participate in our McDADE-DNA Project which we are expecting to be a valuable asset to our paper trail research to show how our various McDADE lines throughout the world may be connected thru : 1. your direct participation if you are a direct line McDADE male descendant (direct male in your McDADE line all the way back to your earliest known McDADE ancestor, including yourself) by participating in the DNA testing. OR 2. your indirect participation (because you are or became a male descendant of a McDADE daughter at some point in your McDADE line OR are a McDADE daughter) by finding the fathers, brothers, uncles, nephews, cousins that are direct line male McDADE descendants in your family and urging them to participate under 1. above. First, if it is at all possible, please participate in the 25 marker test as this gives us a much better analysis of the known, possible, or potential relationships. Each and every participant is an important link in connecting our various lines whether our ancestor was an early arrival in the 1600's or 1700's or a later arrival in the 1800's or 1900's in Australia, Canada, England, New Zealand, USA, etc. Our ancestors may have come directly from Scotland or via Ireland, but with McDADE as the primary spelling, we are probably all cousins in one way or another. You may contact me at any time if you have questions. There is no medical connection with any of this, just a check on the male DNA markers that are passed father to son almost intact for many generations, with an occasional mutation. It is especially important to have a male participate (regardless of age) if the male is the only or one of two male McDADE descendants of a father, grandfather or great grandfather. Unfoutunately, the daughters can not do this for this particular easy, efficient, and economical test. I hope you will participate in the launching of this great project for our McDADE's everywhere. Please inform others you feel should be contacted or send me names, e-mail addresses, and or snail addresses and phone numbers for other McDADE kin. I can't wait to see how our markers reveal our potential relationships, especially if many of you will select the 25 plus marker DNA test.

Your public library could get the microfilms for you on inter-library loan or you could get them at your closest Family History Library. Good luck! Jean R.

Hello, I'm asking for something a little more difficult this time. I would like to find the families these two people are living with. It would not be their parents and they should be in the 1890 and/or 1900 census. ERNEST JOHN RITTER b. 1885 CATHERINE RITTER b. 1886 They may not be with the same family. I certainly will send hugs to who ever finds them. Dennis --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software

HI, I am looking for Bernard Ritter who died Oct 28 1926 in Renville, MN. His wife Lucille Miller died in 1886 in Freeport. They had a son-Ernest John Ritter b. Apr 9, 1884 in Freeport and a daughter named Catherine b. Jan 7, 1886. As was common during those times after Lucille died Ernest and Catherine went to live with another family. I do not know who that other family is. Any information you can find on the above people will be appreciated. Dennis --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Good morning, everyone. This is further information from Donna. I noticed on the list that her e-mail didn't come through. Her address is gramdw97@aol.com. Here is the info: Her mother's name was Helen Leona MAYCLIN, b. 8/12.22, father was Donald Alexander BUCHANAN, grandmother's married name was Mrs. Whilhemina BUCHANAN. They were members of St. Stephen's Catholic parish in Minneapolis. The 1941 date for her brother's birth is an educated guess from what little is known. She and her other siblings were born at Deaconess Hospital in Minneapolis and had the same doctor, Dr. Merkert. Her parent's were not married at the time and the grandmother may have been involved in taking the baby. There have been a few replies, and thank you for your help and ideas. I hope you can help Donna find her brother.
