 MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY. MINNESOTA ETHNIC HISTORY PROJECT: An Inventory of Its Records
As explained in the preface, the project's main objective was to "bring together in a single volume information on the major ethnic populations that have resided in Minnesota during the 130 years from 1850 to 1980," but also to act as a launching point for further, more exhaustive treatment of Minnesota's ethnic history.
The Minnesota Ethnic History Project began as the inspiration of Carlton C. Qualey, a former director of the Minnesota Historical Society, an MHS research fellow, and noted scholar in the field of immigration history.
In addition, researchers drew upon the materials in the University of Minnesota's immigration history collections and other local historical societies, as well as a great deal of field research including hundreds of interviews with immigrants and their descendants.

 Dean Wagner's Genealogy - Early Days in Evansville
One in what is known as the Park Region of Minnesota, and the third along the shores of Lake Superior.
We have seen fields where the young grain had been eaten, which were as bare and fl as when first plowed, although they had their preference, we have no doubt that they would eat every green thing to be found when in sufficiently large enough numbers.
That such large numbers should be so frightened at the mere reports that were circulated was perhaps due in great measure to the enervating effects of the extreme heat that was often prevailing and shows what dread and fear the settlers had of the Indians at that time.

Minnesota's conservation tradition, active citizenry and progressive government have led over the years to a broad consensus on River management; this community vision is reflected in the following principles.
Dominated by agriculture (which contributes billions of dollars to the state's economy) throughout its watershed, the Minnesota is severely degraded by runoff from farms and urban areas as well as municipal and industrial wastewater discharges.
