2. [IA-GHOSTTOWNS] From List Mom - Comcast buy out [1]
Dear List Members, If you were effected by the Comcast buy out, then you need to read this, if not delete it.

Can't find anything on Cricket but in 1915 the Chiri family is in Bluff Creek twp. in Monroe co. Italian born Pete Chiri is a coal miner. Ancestry's Ia state census records can be hard to deal with. They are on separate index cards. While the rest of the family was indexed as Chiri, 7 y/o Flora was indexed as CHIST. The 1920 federal and 1925 state has them in Pleasant twp. in Lucas co.1920 indexed as CHERRY[CHEONG] and 1925 as Chiri. Dick May you live to be a hundred, with an extra year to repent! Irish pro
5. [IA-GHOSTTOWNS] Re(Google search): The Town of Cricket [1]
Al's family settled in the Iowa Territory west of what is now Oskaloosa in 1843. As the original prairie was cleared extensive deposits of coal were discovered throughout Mahaska, Marion and Monroe counties. Coal mining quickly became a major source of revenue as railroads expanded (over fifty mines were eventually developed throughout the area with one shaft placed within a hundred yards of the house where Al was born). Over time, hundreds of miners came to the area - mostly Irish, German and English with

Dear List Members, I just ran across an interesting Website, "Courthouse Experiences" http://www.bcpl.net/~dmg/courthouse.htm Not every county is listed, but the ones listed gave helpful information regarding the attitudes of those working in the courthouses. I might suggest that if you have had a positive or negative courthouse experience you add them to this site. I now know how to prepare myself for several courthouses I want to visit later this year.

Hello listers, I recently took over as list mom and thought I'd introduce myself. In addition to the Iowa Ghost towns list, I admin about 20 other "quiet" lists as well as several message boards. I have to admit, I don't live in Iowa and I don't have any special knowledge regarding IA ghost towns, just a keen interest in ghost towns in general. This list currently has over 30 subscribers so why don't we all introduce ourselves? Jackie -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG A

19. Ghost towns web-site [1]
There is a short list of user contributed ghost towns in Iowa on this site: http://www.ghosttowns.com/ Click on "Click on map to select state", then on the state of Iowa. When the map of Iowa is loaded scroll down below it to see the list of Iowa ghost towns. Sometimes the map reference (what part of the state the town was in) is incorrect, but the County is listed on the town page to help locate it. Having the data submitted by users means the submitter has probably been to the town and gives a litt

Hello everyone. I just received notice from RootsWeb concerning updates that will start next week. As some of you may know, they have been advertising updates to the Message Boards all summer. In addition, the Mailing Lists will be moved to a new management system. What does that mean to list subscribers? For the most part, very little. The main points are: 1. Your current subscription(s) will automatically transfer to the new system so there will be no need to re-subscribe to your list(s). 2.
