Dear Listers, Note that the Godfrey Memorial Library has a Family History Center, which is a branch facility of the Family History Library in Salt Lake City. The Center provides access to most of the microfilms and microfiche in the Family History Library, and also to Ancestry.com, but only in the center, not online.

I also have the census subscription. I have really used it a lot nd it has been great. I have the newspaper subscription, it downloads slow, it did have a few of the Iowa newspapers for my research, but I will not be renewing it. Retirement and less income is about a month away. I will be using the Ancestry Plus at my local library(in library only) for anything not in my Ancestry Census subscription, and also the HeritageQuest that is available online from my local library.

7. [IOWA] original marriage certificate? [1]
Hi List, I didn't think I would be able to get a marriage certificate after I found my Great-grandparents marriage on a list of marriages, Is that possible? I thought what I have is the original record? They were married 9 April, 1857 in Clayton County, Iowa. A record of the marriage date, His Name/Her Name and the name of the Missionary that married them. Anyone know if there is a certificate available? This same Great-grandfather died in 1898 in Kansas and his death is on a death list. I don't think ther
8. Re: [IOWA] Samuel Fleming [1]
After checking Collins Fleming in 1910, 20, 30, I would like to shake his hand for using his middle initial so faithfully. The 1880 census does not show him. But it does show Samuel G. from Ohio and Maggie C. from Indiana which could be the correct father (I have not looked up the death of Margaret). The best bet I have found is: 1900 Linn Co Iowa FLEMING, Samuel, 48, born Feb 1852, from Ohio , Almira, 37, born Feb 1863, from Iowa , Collans, June 1880 (I suspect this should be

Could you please look up the marriage of Philip Streck and Rose Anna McCullough. Their first child was born in 1892.

Fred, There are actually 5 Jewish Cemeteries located in Des Moines. Three are within the confines of the Glendale Cemetery but are separate and keep their own records by the Synagogue that runs them.

None of them have specific addresses other than the location of the cemetery. Their names of three of them are Children of Israel, which i

Is anyone researching the LANGHOFF Family? I have done very little research on this family but have been curious to know if perhaps some of the Langhoff family had also immigrated to Iowa.

Henry Blocker, born about 1802, was the son of either Magdelina Catharina (RAMBOW) and Christian BLOCKER or Helena (Unknown) and Michael BLOCKER

For those couple of you that have had good luck with ancestry, consider yourselves the rare few. I think you are the only three i have seen that had no problems.

Vicky, This is a very basic answer to your question. Requirements and time periods varied with the times. After an individual had been here for a specified period he was eligible to file his first papers, or petition application. This is the document that will POSSIBLY give you the most information, such as port of entry, date, etc. Then, after another waiting period, they could file their final papers. This usually only indicated the individuals name, date, and that he gives up his allegiance to the king
