The Congregational Historical Society is also located in the same building. The Congregational Library has a collection of church records and biographies on church leaders. However, they do not have a master surname index to their collection. They have a few items for Minnesota, including records from the Church of the Open Door.
Before beginning research and to have a better understanding of the makeup of the denominations and the location of these records, see:
*Hage, Anne A., ''Church Records in Minnesota: A Guide to Parish Records of Congregational, Evangelical, Reformed, and United Church of Christ Churches, 1851–1981''. Minneapolis, Minnesota: Minnesota Conference, United Church of Christ, 1983. (Family History Library {{FHL|244596|title-id|disp=book 977.6 K2h}}.) This source mentions the kinds and dates of records at each church up to 1981.
