Posted on: Polk County Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Mn/Polk/520 Surname: STORTROEN ------------------------- Forgot to mention that Wilton is in Beltrami Co. So you would want to contact The Pioneer, 1320 Neilsen Ave. SW, Bemidji, MN 56601. 218-751-3740. FAX 218-751-6914. Or Beltrami County Historical Society, 7301 Frontage Rd. NW, Bemidji, MN 56601. 218-751-7824. You can write to the courthouse for a a death record if you have a close date for death. The number is 218-755-1922. This is the only number listed and must be for the hospitality area. This is where the records are kept and they have very nice accomodations for researchers. When I was last there they had a table set up right outside the vault where the records are kept and a coffee pot to help yourself!
