This new page will be devoted to letters and correspondence of early Emmet county settlers.
Emmet county needs volunteers.
Also, many thanks to Jon Barber for providing us with a fascinating account of early life in Emmet county. In July 1858, the writer of this was sent from camp on Section 23, Township 100, Range 34 W. 5th P.M. to Estherville on an errand. The only house was a dugout which stood near where the Railway round-house is now located. In April 1874, I purchased of Hon. Frank A. Day a one half interest in the Northern Vindicator.
