The official 1873 founding document of the Minnesota Academy of Natural Sciences (later to become the Minnesota Academy of Science) contains its original Constitution and By-Laws. Article II states that, It shall be the object of the Academy to observe and investigate natural phenomena; to make collections of specimens illustrating the various departments of science; to name, classify, and preserve the same; also, to discuss such questions as shall come within the province of the Academy. The By-Laws direct the establishment of a museum, as well as regular meetings at which scientific investigations will be communicated either orally or in writing.
This hand-written "Historical Sketch," labeled in different writing [By Newton H. Winchell], contains an incomplete account of the Minnesota Academy of Natural Sciences' 1873 founding and activities in its early years. The approximate date is 1886, as it refers to the 13 years life of the M. A. of N. S. It states that the Academy has 175 members, summarizes its museum specimens, and mentions its public lectures and a few scientific contributions. See the transcript for the full text.
This hand-written document, labeled in different writing [By Newton H. Winchell], contains a brief and incomplete account of the Minnesota Academy of Natural Sciences' founding. The approximate date is 1890, as it refers to the 17 years of the Academy's existence. It includes a list of early members, first elected officers, and honorary members. The death of Dr. A.E. Ames, the Academy's first Corresponding Secretary, is noted. See the transcript for the full text.

This typed and annotated document is labeled as the "First Constitution of the Minnesota Academy of Science," thus presumably around the 1933 refounding (cf., the 1873 founding constitution of the Minnesota Academy of Natural Sciences). Article II states that, "The object of the Academy shall be the promotion of the sciences through an organization of scientists resident in the State of Minnesota." Provision is made for officers, committees and meetings, "taking into account the state wide nature of the organization." The By-Laws set the annual dues as two dollars for each active member and one dollar for each associate member.�
