- ↑ On January 22, 1857, Joseph R. Brown was admitted as a member of the House. He appears to have been admitted as an additional member, as both of the other members from his district (Francis Baasen and Ozro A. Thomas) continue to appear in the journal as members after the date on which J.R. Brown was sworn in.[2]
- ↑ The date of Morgan L. Noble's resignation is uncertain. Minnesota Legislators Past & Present lists the date of the end of the regular session.[3]
