Cyclone 1886

These are some of the people who fell victim to to the Cyclone of 1886 near Rice's Station on April 14, 1886 (Rice, MN) in Langola township of Benton County, Minnesota. There was a wedding party on the John Schulz farm. Nine people lost their life that day. A few survivers succumded to their injures and passed away within a couple of days or months. This twister touched many in my family and within our home church of Graham United Methodist Church, Rice, MN. They are people I am doing research on.
