I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN INTERESTING LIST AS IT HAS SOME TRANSLATIONS AND OTHER KNOWN NAMES...INTERESTING INFORMATION!
MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY--
Files created by Woolworth on individuals who spent most of their lives in Minnesota during the nineteenth century. Included are many Native Americans, fur trade personnel and early white settlers. Files consist largely of photocopies from both primary and secondary sources that refer to that individual. Many of the Native American files are arranged by the native name but a number are filed by their English transliteration and there is no consistency of use throughout these files. While most of the files concern Dakota individuals, Objibwe and Winnebago names appear. Researchers should also check the Minnesota biography card files located in the Weyerhauser room.

MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY--
Files created by Woolworth on individuals who spent most of their lives in Minnesota during the nineteenth century. Included are many Native Americans, fur trade personnel and early white settlers. Files consist largely of photocopies from both primary and secondary sources that refer to that individual. Many of the Native American files are arranged by the native name but a number are filed by their English transliteration and there is no consistency of use throughout these files. While most of the files concern Dakota individuals, Objibwe and Winnebago names appear. Researchers should also check the Minnesota biography card files located in the Weyerhauser room.
