Paula's Genealogical Eclectica:- The Minnesota Association of County Officers has fulfilled our wishes. If you were not sure of which county a marriage took place in, you could only search at Ancestry.com from 1958 - 2001 or request that search from the Minnesota Department of Health. For other years you needed to know the exact county and check with that courthouse. Yes, there were microfilms of some county marriage records available at the Minnesota Historical Society or via the Family History Library in Salt Lake City.

Paula's Genealogical Eclectica:- The 2010 edition of the Salt Lake Institute of Genealogy ended last evening with a great banquet and a delightful presentation by Peggy and George Ryskamp. I have known them for many years and knew we were in for a treat as they told some poignant and interesting stories about their research travels to Spain and the Netherlands. The pictures were wonderful.
