Immigration History Research Center: Italian American collection.
Approximately 450 titles of newspapers and periodicals published throughout the U.S. and reflecting
the entire spectrum of Italian American opinion and ideologies; in many cases, the IHRC maintains
the only extant holdings of a title. Several of the Center's newspapers have been preserved on
microfilm and are available for purchase or through interlibrary loan.
The Center holds over 1,200 linear feet of manuscript collections comprising the personal papers
of clergymen, journalists, politicians, labor leaders, and writers and the records of cultural, labor,
religious, and political organizations. The largest component is the archives of the Order Sons of Italy
in America which document the activities of the leading Italian American fraternal organization at the
national, state, and local levels. Also, substantial amounts of archival records from Italy are available
on microfilm, including material from the Historical Archives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Rome).
Taken together, the collection touches upon virtually every facet of the Italian experience in America
and is particularly rich in sources on organizational, political, and labor activities. IHRC's manuscript
collections can be accessed in the University of Minnesota Libraries' database, MNCAT and are also in the
RLIN (Research Libraries Information Network) database. Since these databases do not include our most
recent acquisitions, contact us by phone, fax or e-mail [ihrc@gold.tc.umn.edu] if your search doesn't yield
what you're looking for.
The IHRC does not maintain certain types of records commonly associated with genealogical research
on immigrants, such as ship manifests and naturalization records. The collections focus primarily on
the experiences of the immigrants and generally consist of documentation they themselves generated as
opposed to information recorded by government officials or others involved in processing newcomers
through American ports or assigning them citizenship.

Eugene de Beauharnais archive, 1788-1849 (bulk 1805-1814) (138 boxes, 11 flat cases). Contains correspondence,
reports, and documents of Beauharnais, primarily accumulated by him in his capacity as viceroy of the Napoleonic Kingdom of
Italy (1805-1814), relating to European military affairs during the Napoleonic era. Also included are papers documenting
Beauharnais' position at the Congress of Vienna (1814-1815), his establishment in the Bavarian duchy of Leuchtenberg (1817),
and his later life as Prince d'Eichstatt (1817-1824). There are approximately 6000 letters and reports received by Beauharnais
from all the important military and administrative officials (with the exception of Napoleon) of the French Empire. The
correspondence deals, for the most part, with military matters, but also covers naval and maritime affairs, finance, engineering,
fortifications, and the civil administration of the Kingdom. Also present are extensive files of financial reports on the budget
of the Kingdom compiled by Michel Hennin, Treasurer of the Crown, including the estates at Chiaravalle, Galliera, Bologna, Pelucca,
Ancona, and other Appanage districts; files of Beauharnais' secretaries and ides-de-camp.; general reports on military and state
affairs; military statistics; documents and notes on the campaigns of 1809, 1812-1813; correspondence and reports of Italian
generals and administrators.; inventories, stud-farm records, budgets, and expenses of the royal households at Malmaison, Villa
Bonaparte, Pelucca, and Laferte-Beauharnais; cash accounts, and letterbooks of Beauharnais' outgoing correspondence. There is
also a file of social correspondence of Augusta-Amalia, Beauharnais' wife, containing letters (1817-1849) by various European
dignitaries, and records (1806-1823) of her personal finances. A 183-page guide to the collection is available.
All of Napoleon's letters were previously removed.
