"The new Records Center allows citizens to
look up records from various cases in one place, ranging from civil and
conciliation to criminal, housing and probate/mental health. The center
is located in the B Vault in the lower level of the Hennepin County
Government Center, 300 S. 6th St., in Minneapolis."
"Hennepin County is still in the process of digitizing the equivalent of
180 semitrailer truck loads of record accumulated over 130 years."

Don't forget to check FamilySearch.org (FamilySearch catalog) and the Minnesota Historical Society catalog for some Hennepin County records.

Thanks, Paula, for keeping us informed of Hennepin and Ramsey County resources!
Do you know whether this will include divorce records? And does this digitizing project include an online index like the Minnesota Marriage Index?
Kerry, it should include the divorces since they are a district court civil record. No online indexes were mentioned. I think we will hear more over the next few weeks. Wish I had time to investigate but there's this conference looming!
