Minnesota: General Information

This state has beautiful nature that fishermen and hunters love. People do kayaking and canoeing, biking and skiing trips. Minnesota ranks eleventh among the other U.S. states in area. The state has an area of 225,181 kmĀ², and the largest cities are Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Rochester. The state capital is the city of St. Paul.

Biotechnology companies and medicine are very well developed in the state. Mining and agriculture are also important. Thus we can conclude that the vast majority of the nation's adult population works in these fields or in those areas that are connected with them.

Minnesota: The People

While Minnesota is the twelfth largest state in land area, its population is the twentieth largest. In 2020 Minnesota had a population of over 5 million 700,000 and more than 44,745 deaths. This state is also recognized by the huge number of celebrities born here who have become famous not only in the United States, but also outside the states. You know many of these people: musicians like Brooke Elliott, Jessica Lange, Jane Russell, and a host of other notable figures.

But Minnesota is not just famous for its celebrities. The state is also home to a great number of people who all have their own stories to tell. Finding out a public person's story is easy: just search the Internet and you'll find all the information you need. With non-public people, everything is somewhat more complicated: about them not so much information in the public domain, but it still is. For example, using search services, you can learn the history of the deceased person and find his obituary.

Obituaries: what they are and how to use them

An obituary is a kind of plaque of a person. Obituaries can be brief or more detailed. As a rule, brief obituaries contain information about the person: sex, name and surname, date of birth and death, place of birth and death, the person's age. In more expanded versions to the basic information is added information about where the person lived, what he did, what was his family and other information.

Such obituaries you can find on our site.

How do I search for an obituary?

Considering that Minnesota is the twelfth largest state, it can still take a long time to find a dead person. You can reduce that time if you have the right search system in place right away.

The first thing to look for and what can help you is a maximum of accurate data about the person. Naturally, the first and last name is the most important, but you may also need information such as place of residence, place of work and date of death.

Second, you can check available online databases of obituaries. Search engines can help you with this.

A more complicated way is to try to find a newspaper that may have published information about the deceased person. But it is desirable to know the city and even the area where the person lived, to narrow down the search.

There is a way that combines all three: you can go to one of the public libraries in Minnesota. Libraries are staffed by professionals who can tell you how to do your search properly. Many libraries have information about people who died more than two centuries ago.

On this site, you can use the state filter to find information about people who have died in that state. You can also filter by first and last name, city, and date of death.
