I'm looking for information on the Iowa 31st Infantry, Company A. Is there a
web site showing its accomplishments/members/travels?
I'm also interested in the 24th Iowa Infantry. I've found a little about this one,
but would like more. Thanks.

Thank You Janet for ALL of your efforts and hard work concering Oliver
Brown, Howard Brown and Orval Brown. You have been a tremendous help and
you know this. However, finding out more about these three guys raises more
questions and I wonder if I can call on all of you to possibly help.
OLIVER BROWN was born on December 5, 1878 in Urbana, IA to Huston Brown and
Nancy Jane (nee Long) Brown. He married Minnie Davis between 1898 and 1901
but I don't know where or the exact date. After Oliver's death, Min
Looking for further information on Zadock Beeson Turner b. 10 Aug 1893, and died 14 Nov 1958 in Cedar Rapids, Linn Co, Iowa.
His wife was Ruth Marguerite Elliott. She also died in Linn co. Would like burial place for this couple. And were there any children?
Thank you, Kathleen Rizer
Hi Carol (PardeeGal) -
Thank you kindly for the address of the Linn County Historical Society, although, I have a very thick book called FIND PUBLIC RECORDS FAST for every single State in the USA, every single county and every courthouse. Do you mind if I ask what the purpose of this list is? If it is soley to give out the historical society's address and phone number, the list is in vain as that address and phone number is also all over the internet's Linn County, IA pages.
Thank you!

I made a "genealogical" request/askance for "...and I wonder if I can call
on all of you to possibly help." What in the world is going on here?
Suddenly, I am being asked WHERE I live because I made a request for help,
as though this is a chat room or something. When I made the request below, I
was told to "be responsible" and pay for the information via the Linn County
Historical Society in Cedar Rapids (they have moderate fees) which has many
copies of obituaries, was critiqued on their filing system an

People on this list help - if they happen to be a direct descendant - and already have the answer - if not they are helpful in
directing - BUT - it is your responsibility to spend the time and money to contact the historical society - court houses - funeral
homes, etc. for the answers. It is also your reward when you find the answer.
During my researches I have found encouragement, from people on the list - which means alot when you hit a brick wall.
My searches are for Garnett - Garrett - Webber -
Is there anyone on this list that may be able to assist me in locating a HOWARD BROWN, son of Oliver Brown. My mate, Bob, remembers visiting Howard Brown at his home in Cedar Rapids when Bob was MUCH younger. He remembers the name Fern as being associated with Howard and tends to believe that it would have been his wife. Howard had a brother named Orville or Orval Brown but do not believe that Orville lived in Cedar Rapids. Howard was probably born between 1900 - 1910 in Benton County so there would be

Cathie,
As moderator for the IaLinn list I want to apoligize to you for any rudeness
expressed to you by a member of this list.
You are exactly right this list is to help others with info lookups etc.
when possible. NOT to promote the sales of any genealogical society. While I
support and appreciate the work the Linn Co. Society this list is not to
promote their sales.
Once again I am sorry for that email you recieved.

Your post caught my eye, as my 2nd great grandfather, Samuel P. WHITE, served
in the 24th Iowa Infantry; and my 3rd great grandfather, Jerome William COOK,
served in the 31st Iowa Infantry, Company E.
I have copies of their pension papers but have no information on the units
themselves. I would be interested in any info that's out there.

Hi all,
In a flash of brilliance, I took some information on
the internet without noting the web address. I know
that there are tombstone inscriptions of numerous Linn
County Cemeteries, several of them were of my Boxwell
family. Does someone out there know where these are
located on the internet?

Looking for further information on Thomas Springer and his wife.
Thomas Springer was born 25 Sep 1837 in Fayette Co, Penn. the son of Aaron Springer and Mary Hibben. Thomas Springer died 24 Sep 1887 in Linn co., Iowa. The surname of his wife was supposedly JUNK.
Would like to know if Thomas Springer is buried in Linn Co.?
I have found him in 1860 Benton Co, Iowa, not yet married. Could not seem to find Thomas Springer in 1870 Iowa census. Would like further information on this couple and were there any
Me again,
I should have said - if you are researching the surnames below, my database
is online at
http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=kittyfur
So you can see if we have any connections.
I will reply separately to those of you that wrote to me already.
Happy Hunting!

My GGGrandfather was Michael Gilligan b abt 1823, son of Michael Gilligan
and Winefred Kivlehan. Michael came to the US sometime before 1857. He
married Mary Cullen in Dubuque Co. IA in 1857. They were farmers and
lived in Bankston. Only my GGrandfather Michael Vincent married of all
Michael and Mary's children. Stories that have come down through the
family lead me to believe that Michael was not the only one of his fam
