Biographical History

Museum originally formed from collections held by the Minnesota Geological and Natural History Survey. In 1890, the Survey was divided in three branches: geological, zoological, and botanical. The Zoological Survey closed in 1903. Collection of specimens resumed in 1915 when Thomas Sadler Roberts was appointed curator. The Zoological Museum was housed in the University of Minnesota Zoology Building until 1940 when the Museum of Natural History (now the Bell Museum of Natural History) was constructed.
