If the present owners do not have them, you can also check with the State of MN as they would then be turned over to them when a company goes out of business and the purchasing company did not keep them. Some were also turned over to the MNHSociety from the info I was given when I was searching for records for a defunct mortuary. Annie in Minnesota
