St. Louis County MNGenWeb Lookups

These people have generously volunteered to do limited lookups to help you with your St. Louis County MN ancestors:

*Anna - Minnesota Mining Accidents, 1900-1920, and Mining Deaths, 1889-1990. It's basically an index, which can include: name, accident or death, date, mine, nationality, age, marital status, number of children and source. Since the data came from various sources, not al elements my be included in the citation. Also some names include name changes (i.e., Palamaki/Maki)

*Hokan Bergstrom - I'm willing to do look-ups in the Swedish so called Emigranten CD with 1,4 million Swedes (and a few Finns) who emigrated from Sweden. The CD in some cases covers emigration up to 1951. Please be as detailed as possible with the info you have; full name, year of birth, year of emigration, alternative spellings or surnames, from what part of Sweden, first destination in the US etc. etc.

* Jim Dewar has the book Early Loggers in Minnesota - Vol. II by J.C. Ryan. It was published by the Minnesota Timber Producers Association. The booklet covers loggers from 1900 to 1941, with most of the coverage during the CCC years of 1933-1941. About 135 names have been catalogued.

*Suzanne Harris - I will do lookups in the book - Recollections of Early Days in Duluth by Jerome E. Cooley. I have had the book for awhile but there was no index and I just finished making one. There are about 350 names listed. The book was printed in 1925 and has information back to about 1860.

*Suzanne Harris - I have the History of the Keystone Lodge, Duluth, MN. It goes from member No 1 in 1871 to member no 750 in 1908. Will do lookups.

*Barb Werner - Minnesota in the Spanish-American War and the Philippine Insurrection by Franklin F. Holbrook: Look-ups in this book will usually show what unit he participated in, how old he was at the time, where he was born, where he resides, where he enrolled, when he was sick, what rank he held and when he mustered out.
