I have just added a new page to the Hennepin County site, with permission from the Hennepin County Historical Society. The article, which lists early land owners of St. Anthony Minnesota before 1855 with a plat map, shows the section the holders settled on and short biographies of each settler. I have posted it under the link "History of Hennepin County". http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnhennep/patentees.htm Claudia Schuman - Coordinator http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnhennep/ http://hennbios.tripod.com/index.htm http://fdlbios.tripod.com/index.htm http://www.rootsweb.com/~mnscott/index.htm
