Click on State pages then click on Graphic Map. Click on MN. Then click on Select a MN co. Click on Le Sueur Co. Then on Le Sueur Co Genealogy Center. Under Records on micro film they show immigration records. They are a volunteer group and it may take awhile to get a reply during the winter months.
