Information contained in this database has been obtained from the files of the Carver County Historical Society Library; specifically, the newspaper index (in the future to include scrapbooks, family histories etc...). As with any information source, errors, inconsistencies, and accuracy in spelling and content are unavoidable. Therefore,
when researching individual names or places. We have tried to include alternatives whenever possible.
The Carver County Historical Society is grateful to Southwest Newspapers for their generous financial support of the newspaper indexing project.
The Newspaper/Resource Search is a searchable index of newspaper, record, and archival materials available from the Carver County Historical Society’s Research Library and Archive. Please see Library Resources and Genealogy for detailed information of the materials available at the CCHS.
If you wish to obtain copies of materials within the index, the CCHS staff is readily available to assist you with operating our microfilm readers, locating records, or providing access to archival material.
Research requests are completed in the order they are received.
If you have a question or would like to submit a research or article & records request, please email the CCHS Researcher, Brenda Reister, at: breister@carvercountymn.gov. Or call us at: (952) 442-4234. Requests can also be submitted by mail using our Research Request Form: Click here for a printable form
What are these fees used for? Library fees help offset a portion of the costs of running the library including staff time, purchasing new materials, and maintenance of the microfilm reader.
