Immigration and roots across the Atlantic are themes of the annual MGS Family History Fair that will be held April 17 at the MGS Library and Research Center in South Saint Paul, Minnesota.

- Danish - Scott Jkar
- African-American - Myrtice Orr
- English - Lois Mackin and Jay Fonkert
- Bavarin (German) - Kent Cutkomp
- Irish - Beth Mullinax
- Yankees - Barbara Oestreich
