Art's birth certificate and Place of Birth


A Copy of Arthur Vidich's birth certificate. He came into this world without a name and he left this world known as Arthur Joseph Vidich. His parents, Joseph, and Paulina were, respectively, 35 and 30 years of age when Art was born in the village of Manganese located in Crow Wing county Minnesota. 

Art was the only son of Slovenian immigrants. They moved from Minnesota shortly after Art was born due to a mining accident that his father had while working in northern Minnesota. This accident would bring him to Milwaukee, Wisconsin where he spent his youth in West Allis, a community with a large Slovenian population.
