This Site is part of The MNGenWeb Project & The USGenWeb Project
Thank you for visiting the St. Louis County portion of the MNGenWeb.
I do not live in Minnesota, but have roots deep in her soil.

Remington Collection: Explanation
The R D Remington Collection was originally created as a way to locate customers
who were behind on their credit account.
The indexes were typed on cards and are loosely alphabetical.
The Newspaper clippings were pasted into notebooks, the quality is not perfect, but the images are legible.
The names of the Newspapers are unknown.
The Indexes and Clippings cover St Louis, Itasca and Koochiching Counties
