"Oliver Faribault...Here's some things that I know about him:
He was born in 1815, most likely in Prairie du Chien. He died in October
1850 (I've got the exact date somewhere) He is buried in Faribault,
in the same plot as his brother Alexander. His wife Harriet is buried
in Shakopee, (I think in either the cemetary on a hill just south of Canterbury
Downs, or in the small one near the high school. Memory fails me
right now.)
If you've ever read "Old Rail Fence Corners" there's a few pages there
written by his daughter Lucy. I've got copies of his purchases from H.H.
Sibley's post in Mendota."
