I am looking for the time frame of 1919-1923/24. _____ The Minnesota Genealogical Society has many directories in hard copy. The catalog is available online at mngs.org. (The years are somewhat scattered. I see 1920 listed.) The Minnesota Historical Society has most years, on microfilm. Check mnhs.org for the catalog. Each has volunteers who will do lookups in exchange for a donation. (Budgets are tight.) Mary MGS volunteer

If you do that, you might also ask that they check their From my own experience researching in that library, I allow 10 minutes per name to locate the directory, look up the page, and make a copy. The Henn Co HS has an almost complete set of Minneapolis city directories and phone books. Many of these are originals and fragile and that adds to lookup time. They are very kind - and they can use any donations sent their way. FYI, Shawne FitzGerald > >
