Ancestry Quick Tip Archive - maps & census
I am currently researching in my home state of Iowa. I grew up there, but
have been gone since 1958. While working on my census reports, I found
many new Townships which I didn't remember. I guess I didn't pay that
much attention to things like that. So, I went to www.topozone.com and
made a map of my home county of Des Moines County, as well as all the
immediate counties

I've been spending time recently looking through our family photographs.
These range from the more recent ones to the oldest ones I have, which
date from the early 1870s. I consider myself fortunate to have this rich

missing images of some family members, these provide a vivid
